Big Al was also playing some really great defense on Kristaps Porzingis who came to the Garden as NBA’s second best scorer but finished the game with 12 points on 14 shots. Daniel Theis did his part on Latvian as well, getting one of his two blocks on Knicks big man. German scored 11 points to go along with five rebounds in the game.
