Did the Knicks make history on Friday? No. Were they reasonably close? You can build a case these days.
If you have not been living under a rock for the past few years, then you already know the vibes of the current NBA. The game is about a bucket more than it ever has, and scoring 120+ points a night is now the norm, not the exception anymore. This is, in fact, the 10th consecutive season in which teams across the Association are putting up 100+ points per game.
This is, however, the highest-scoring year ever with all 30 teams combining for an average of 115 PPG, a figure unheard of before this the year 2024 of our lord.
