"The Hawks allowed the Knicks, and that is the most accurate way to put this, to score 14 straight points. Then nine straight. Then 16 straight. Then 12 straight. Then 10 straight."
"After that, they pretty much played the Knicks even, but that 63-11 run, which turned an 11-9 Hawks lead into a 72-22 deficit WITH 4:39 REMAINING IN THE FIRST HALF, generally inhibited the Hawks from being their truest selves."
"I mean, there's no convincing way to make 140-89 look competitive, but it is at least imaginable. 63-11 is a fifth-grade CYO score."
