Isaiah Hartenstein was one of the unsung heroes of the Knicks’ 111-105 Game 2 victory at the Garden, helping them control the paint in the big win.
Several hours before Game 1, Isaiah Hartenstein emphasized the need for the Knicks to play with more force. He then backed up those bold words.Knicks’ come-from-behind, 111-105 Game 2 victoryWith Mitchell Robinson struggling due to foul trouble, Hartenstein provided the Knicks with a jolt, notching three points, nine rebounds, a block and an assist in the series-equaling win.
“I think that was one thing I really saw watching the [first] game, where we weren’t physical enough,” Hartenstein said. “I’m trying to be as physical as possible, whether that’s setting a little harder screen, boxing out a little harder, just trying to be as physical as possible.”It included a four-point play in which he drew a foul while setting a screen to free up a Jalen Brunson 3-pointer and an offensive possession that lasted 1:07.
The Knicks retrieved four offensive rebounds on the possession, three by Hartenstein, that resulted in a Josh Hart 3-pointer and pulled the Knicks even at 96 with 4:45 left. They never trailed again. “I think it kind of showed who we are as a team,” Hartenstein said, referring to the long possession. “No matter what happens, we stick together and just keep going. That’s what got us here. Just being physical, playing together and keep going.”
