Knicks’ grades from their Game 1 overtime win over the Celtics, 108-105, on Monday in Boston:

Hit some big shots in the fourth quarter, but missed the potential winner at the end of regulation. It wasn’t a gimme bucket over Al Horford, but makeable. Not Brunson’s best game offensively. But he was great defensively. There was one play, in particular, when he was matched up one-on-one with Jayson Tatum in OT and forced the MVP candidate into a bad miss.

The Celtics didn’t respect his outside shot — for good reason — so Hart found other ways to impact winning. He had 11 rebounds, including five offensive, while scoring 14 points in 45 hard-fought minutes.

Struggled for much of the evening with foul trouble and appeared overmatched. But he came through down the stretch with defensive stops and stayed disciplined not to foul out.
