NEW YORK — Trae Young didn’t even have to deliver the punishment to the Knicks. Most of it was self-inflected. The rest arrived courtesy of Dejounte Murray.
In its worst performance of this young season, by far, Tom Thibodeau’s squad upchucked a 23-point lead Wednesday and was pummeled by the Hawks, 112-99, for a third consecutive defeat.
It was ugly.
