There were plenty of factors that went into the Knicks completely outplaying the Hawks from beginning to end in their massive Game 5 win on Tuesday night at MSG.

One of the biggest ones was New York’s domination on the boards.

Atlanta was one of the best offensive rebounding teams in the league all season, but the Knicks did a phenomenal job keeping them off the glass.

Leading that charge was Karl-Anthony Towns and OG Anunoby.

The dynamic duo combined to reel in 24 of the Knicks’ 48 rebounds on the night, which ended up as three more than the Hawks racked up as a team.

Atlanta was limited to just six second-chance and four fastbreak points.

“KAT and OG were monsters,” Mike Brown said. “The two of them, they were phenomenal -- it was huge for us to be able to keep them off the glass and out of transition.”

This continues what’s been a phenomenal series for the both of them.

Towns took just seven shots on the night but he was huge early, chipping in 16 more points and finishing just four assists shy of his second consecutive triple-double.

“I’m always just thinking about impacting winning,” the big man said.

Anunoby finished with just one more point than Towns (17), but his 10 rebounds helped him put together his second consecutive double-double.

The dynamic defender is now averaging 20 points and nine rebounds for the series.

“He’s one of the best two-way players in the NBA,” Towns said. “This series has been great for him to show the world that he’s something we’ve always thought he was -- when you have someone like that who is that good offensively and even better defensively, it’s special.”

With these two leading the charge and Jalen Brunson finally finding his footing, New York will look to close out their first round matchup on the road on Thursday night.
