Knicks rout Hawks 126-97, take 3-2 series lead

sportsApr 29, 202621230

Jalen Brunson scored 39 points and the New York Knicks routed the Atlanta Hawks 126-97 in Game 5 on Tuesday, seizing a 3-2 lead in the first-round playoff series. Brunson's night nearly extended his own franchise mark for 40-point playoff games and he paced New York's attack as the Knicks pulled away. The Hawks now face elimination in Game 6, with the Knicks one win from advancing to the second round.

#mnwild with their first 3-2 series' lead since last advancing to the second round in 2015. The Stars went another game without a 5-on-5 goal. They have now been outscored 14-4 at even strength in the series and 11-3 at five-on-five, with no 5-on-5 goals in 207:53

FINAL: Wild win 4-2, take a 3-2 series lead. Very poor effort from Dallas tonight, impressive stuff from Minnesota. Game 6 is Thursday in St. Paul.

It's turning out to be a GREAT sports day for my favorite teams today! (1) Rays beat Guardians 1-0 for their 6th straight win! (2) Mets beat Nats 8-0 to stop their losing streak! (3) Knicks are on their way to taking a 3-2 series lead on the Hawks. Leading by 18 pts after 3 periods! LET'S GO!

Sabres must be a little worried now…meantime, Wild take a 3-2 series lead but I still predict a game 7. Ok, on to the Dodgers. Don’t care to watch an Oilers win. Seen enough of them the past 4 years.
