Brunson goes 7 for 16 and 1 for 7 from three, and the Knicks still blow Cleveland out. That tells you everything.
The Cavs weren't losing because of three point shooting or Josh Hart getting hot. They were losing because they let New York dictate every single offensive possession. The ball moved, the defense reacted, and Cleveland never forced the issue.
