Knicks vs Hawks: Playoff Rivalry Thriller
Knicks Vs HawksTitle: 'The Rivalry Reborn: Knicks vs. Hawks – A Playoff Showdown for the Ages'
Chapter 1: The Stage is Set
The 2025 NBA Playoffs were heating up, and the basketball world was buzzing about the first-round matchup between the New York Knicks and the Atlanta Hawks. It was a rematch of their intense 2021 series, but this time, both teams were stronger, faster, and hungrier.
The Knicks, led by their fearless point guard Jalen Brunson and defensive anchor Mitchell Robinson, had clawed their way to the 3rd seed with gritty defense and clutch shooting. Meanwhile, the Hawks, powered by the explosive backcourt of Trae Young and Dejounte Murray, had surged late in the season to secure the 6th seed, setting up a showdown dripping with bad blood.
Chapter 2: Game 1 – Fireworks in MSG
Madison Square Garden was electric as the series tipped off. The Knicks came out swinging, with Julius Randle dominating the paint and Donte DiVincenzo raining threes. But Trae Young, ever the villain in New York, silenced the crowd with a 40-point masterpiece, including a deep game-winner over Brunson to steal Game 1, 112-110.
The Knicks were furious. Coach Tom Thibodeau growled in the postgame presser: 'We let one slip. But this series isn’t over.'
Chapter 3: The Grind Begins
Game 2 was a war. The Knicks’ physical defense smothered Trae, forcing him into tough shots, while Brunson answered with 35 points of his own. A controversial no-call on a potential game-tying drive by Murray sealed a 105-103 Knicks win, tying the series.
The Hawks complained about the refs. The Knicks smirked. The rivalry was back.
Chapter 4: Atlanta’s Revenge
Back in State Farm Arena, the Hawks unleashed a furious offensive barrage in Game 3. Onyeka Okongwu dominated the boards, and Bogdan Bogdanovic caught fire from deep, leading Atlanta to a 120-108 blowout. Trae taunted the Knicks’ bench after a dagger three, and the crowd chanted 'Overrated!'
But the Knicks weren’t rattled. Brunson told reporters: 'We’ve been here before. We’ll adjust.'
Chapter 5: The Turning Point
Game 4 was a classic. The Knicks switched to a small-ball lineup, spreading the floor and attacking Atlanta’s weak interior defense. Josh Hart played like a man possessed, grabbing 15 rebounds and hitting a clutch corner three to force overtime. In the extra period, Randle muscled his way to the rim for the game-winning and-1, giving New York a 118-115 victory.
Series tied 2-2. The battle was far from over.
Chapter 6: The Garden Roars Again
Back in New York for Game 5, the Knicks delivered their best performance yet. Robinson swatted five shots, igniting fast breaks, and Brunson dissected Atlanta’s defense with surgical precision. The Hawks fought hard, but a late 15-2 Knicks run sealed a 108-97 win.
The Knicks were one win away from advancing. But Trae Young wasn’t done.
Chapter 7: Survival in Atlanta
Facing elimination, the Hawks played desperate in Game 6. Murray locked up Brunson, and Young orchestrated the offense flawlessly, dropping 18 assists. A clutch three from Saddiq Bey with 10 seconds left sent the game to OT, where Atlanta escaped with a 124-121 win.
The series was headed back to New York for a winner-take-all Game 7.
Chapter 8: Game 7 – Legends Are Made
The entire basketball world tuned in for the finale. The Garden was a cauldron of noise as both teams traded blows in a back-and-forth thriller.
With 30 seconds left and the Knicks down 1, Brunson drove, drew two defenders, and kicked it out to OG Anunoby, who buried a cold-blooded three. The crowd erupted.
Trae had one last chance, but Robinson leaped out of nowhere to block his floater at the buzzer.
Final Score: Knicks 103, Hawks 102.
The Knicks advanced, and the city of New York celebrated into the night. Brunson (32 pts, 9 ast) was carried off the court, while Trae walked off in disbelief.
Epilogue: A Rivalry Cemented
As the Knicks moved on to the next round, the Hawks vowed revenge. The NBA knew this wouldn’t be the last chapter in this fierce rivalry.
For now, New York rejoiced. But in Atlanta, the fire burned brighter than ever.
The End… for now.
Would you want a sequel? Maybe a Hawks revenge arc next season? 😤🏀
