Mike Brown praises Knicks' perseverance in their narrow victory over Hawks.


With points from Jalen Brunson, OG Anunoby, and Anthony Towns, the New York Knicks defeated the Atlanta Hawks 108-105 on the road in a 2025/26 NBA regular season game. Mike Brown stated in an interview that his team showed unwavering fighting spirit and showed no panic despite the difficult situation.


According to the data, Jalen Brunson scored 30 points and 13 assists in this game, Anunoby scored 22 points and 1 assist, while Anthony Towns contributed 21 points and 6 assists for the New York Knicks.


New York Knicks head coach Mike Brown said, "This was a beautiful win for the players, and a very resilient one. We were down by double digits a few times, but the players persevered and didn't panic. The bench was really outstanding; everyone was constantly communicating, encouraging each other, and boosting morale. Jose Alvarado hadn't played, but he was more involved on the sidelines than anyone else. What he said was very inspiring, especially when we were down."


“Anthony Towns and Jalen Brunson did what they were supposed to do. It’s no secret that we got the ball in their hands and ran double-teams, and they delivered on offense, while the other players kept trying to find ways to defend. Jalen Brunson had a rough game for most of it, only finding his rhythm in the fourth quarter, but that’s what great players are like; first and foremost, they have short memories. It wasn’t a smooth game for him, but he persevered and ultimately led us to victory in the crucial moments.”


Mike Brown pointed out, "Josh Hart had every chance to be our Defensive Player of the Game; he was outstanding on defense. However, the award went to Mitchell Robinson, whose defensive performance was phenomenal and truly ubiquitous."


"Everyone should know that this is a fantastic day to limit a Atlanta Hawks team with a great offensive rhythm to 105 points and 40% shooting percentage."


In addition, Mike Brown said, "Quinn Snyder has built this team exceptionally well. They are highly competitive and play very hard. They are strong, have great wingspans, are athletic, and everyone can pass and shoot."


"Our players remained unshaken throughout the game, which was crucial. I want to commend them for their perseverance and positive attitude, which ultimately led them to find a way to win away from home."
