Knicks vs. Bucks: The matchup The Knicks are off to a 2-1 start with key early victories over the Cleveland Cavaliers (119-111) and Boston Celtics (105-95), but now have a point to prove after dropping their first road contest of the season, 115-107, to the Miami Heat on Sunday night. While guard Jalen Brunson had a huge night with 37 points and seven assists on 14-of-26 from the floor, the Knicks offense at large struggled, hitting just 38.8% from the floor. A large portion of those misses came from the New York bench, which got outscored by the Heat’s reserves, 44-21, and made just 1-of-18 from 3-point range.
