In his 29 minutes, the Knicks outscored the 76ers by a whopping 33 points.

After his vanishing act in Game 3, Paul George wasn’t much better on Sunday. He was held to seven points and a minus-35 rating over 27 ineffective minutes. The perennial All-Star was overwhelmed by the Knicks on the perimeter, even without Anunoby the last two games.
