Battle of the Boroughs

WILL THE REAL NEW YORK TEAM PLEASE STAND UP? In their 51st matchup since the Nets moved to Brooklyn(according to StatMuse), this one came down to the wire. Down by as many as 21 points with :30 in the third, the Nets fought back to make it a game. With 4:15 in the fourth, Nets coach Jordi Fernandez challenged a call on a ball ruled out of bounds off Dorian Finney-Smith. Referees reviewed the play and ruled that Anunoby fouled Finney-Smith before the ball went out and called his sixth foul. Coming off a missed potential game-winner the night prior, Jalen Brunson righted his wrongs with a game-winning three with 6.2 seconds left, putting the Knicks on the path to right the ship and build consistency toward realizing their potential.

Who’s the real team of New York? Are the Nets for real? How far can the Knicks go? Comment your thoughts below!
