If you were watching the New York Knicks vs. Atlanta Hawks live, you probably could not believe your eyes. This contest has been a complete and total DOMINATION, with the Knicks putting on a show with the series, as of this writing, at 3-2 in favor of the Manhattan side.
5 things to know about Indiana basketball's transfer haul thus far
The biggest eye-opener from Game 6 is no question the electric play of former Indiana playmaker OG Anunoby. In the first half alone, the veteran playmaker was on absolute fire, scoring 26 points on 10-of-12 shooting. While he's been hot shooting the ball, who saw this coming?
Anunoby entered this contest averaging 20 points vs. Atlanta during the series, but no one expected this kind of an explosion from him with New York on the brink of moving on to the conference semifinals. Well, maybe Anne Hathaway saw it coming? Before New York and Atlanta danced in this one, Hathaway, a die-hard Knicks fans, went on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, and she sang OG's praises:

Anne Hathaway may have seen OG Anunoby's monster game vs. Atlanta coming
"I'm very chill, I'm very loving and calm," Hathaway said on her NYK fandom. "But, like, I'm also the type of fan that I considered wearing an OG jersey out here today. Because when I'm at the game, I want them to know that I know who they are and that they're going to win."
No one can ever question Hathaway's love for her Knicks, as she's frequently making her way to Madison Square Garden for games. Well, it's safe to say that she's probably thrilled with what's going on between New York and Atlanta, as the Hawks are getting their lunch money taken away from them.
The score at halftime had everyone talking, with the Knicks up 83-36 after two quarters. Anunoby almost outscoring Atlanta on his own is something that people are smiling about from ear to ear in Bloomington. While it's been nearly 10 years since he suited up for the Hoosiers, no one will forget about the impact he made for Tom Crean back in the day. And while local fans are probably still upset that the Pacers had a horrific season, at least you can still smile knowing Anunoby is putting on a show and making the Indiana faithful proud in this one.
