It was apparent the Knicks were going to have a long night in the first quarter.
New York couldn't even muster up 20 points in the first quarter, finishing with just 19.
It was as if they knew they were going to lose, so didn't put up much of an effort to win until the 4th quarter.
Cam Reddish was the x factor in the previous two wins, but he left the 3rd quarter with 2:07 seconds remaining with a groin injury and never came back.
If Cam is injured and out again against Phoenix, you can add another loss to the column right now.
Brunson looked completely lost on offense and defense and was no competition for the Warriors back court.
RJ Barrett had one of those John Starks' nights when he is shooting the ball horrendously, believing that he should shoot his way out of his slump.
RJ made a few nice passes but kept chucking instead of focusing on being a facilitator, which would have been more helpful to give the Knicks a chance.
On a night when the Warriors didn't shoot particularly well themselves, the Knicks squandered a real chance to win.
Knicks lose again, Golden State 111 - Knicks 101
