Mitchell Robinson’s impact was evident in return to Knicks lineup

After Wednesday night if you are a fan of the New York nickers well you got some things to be excited about now obviously you’re going to be excited about the team’s 145 to one1 victory over the Toronto Raptors north of the Border 145 points that’s a lot that’s

The most the Knicks have scored in a game in regulation since 1980 that’s a long time ago but the thing Nicks fans could be most excited about is not the 145 points in that game against the Raptors not the fact that six players scored in double figures not

That Miles mcro knocked down nine three-pointers just days after Dante de venzo had set the mix three-pointer record for three-pointers made in a game no it was all about the return of a man fans had not seen in 50 games that is Mitchell Robinson he returned to the

Court and Nick’s fans have to be happy their starting center his back but he wasn’t started came off the bench only played 12 minutes you know he’s got to ease his way back in but look he looked good in those 12 minutes eight points three of three from the field grabbed

Two rebounds also had two blocks two of four from the charity stripe and on the first possession when he came in he grabbed the offensive rebound that’s what we know Mitchell Robinson to do now the Knicks have been needing to get healthy as we come down to the stretch

Of the Season fans want to see mitell Robinson back now they also want to see ogan and noi back who came back but now out with injury and then there’s Julius Randle but Mitchell Robinson is a key first step for the Knicks a guy who was the an anchor of the defense fantastic

On the board especially on the offensive glass and the Knicks are going to need him now if you’re a Knicks fan you might look at this and say hey they played well without him Isaiah hardenstein has been really good precious shua has been really good even Jericho Sims in the

Time he’s played the Nick Center rotation has been strong but if you’re talking about the Knicks competing in the playoffs and really making some noise in the playoffs when they go up against some teams that have size whether it’s Milwaukee withis s TMO or Brook Lopez whether it’s the Celtics who

Throw christops porzingis and the problems that he caused for teams on the offensive end and how you have to defend him and Al Horford the Knicks now getting Mitchell Robinson back gives them some more size and that two-headed monster that they have at the center spot with Isaiah hardenstein and

Mitchell Robinson just makes him a better team will we see Mitch look like he did early in the year when he was a defensive player of the year candidate time will tell he’s got to get his legs back he’s got to ease his way back into

Things but if you’re a Knicks fan and you’re just looking at the win and they masterash the Raptors on Wednesday night that’s all great but the big thing is Mitchell Robinson is back and the key thing now is he’ll be back and he’s going to be healthy and he’s a big the

Knicks needed and he going to be a big part of any success that they have in the postseason this year
