How did Knicks sweep 76ers in Game 4?

Knicks dismantle 76ers again: the path to a 144-114 sweep

The New York Knicks closed out the Philadelphia 76ers with a 4-0 series sweep after a dominant 144-114 win in Game 4 at Xfinity Mobile Arena. The game was decided in a hurry, with New York using a sustained shooting attack—especially from three—to bury any chance of a late Philly rally.

Several storylines point to the same core drivers:

• Historic perimeter shooting: The Knicks tied an NBA postseason mark with 11 three-pointers in the first quarter, and they set a larger series-ending shooting tone throughout the contest.
• Key creator scoring: Jalen Brunson scored 22 points, while Miles McBride authored one of the game’s defining stat lines with 25 points on 7-of-9 from three.
• No let-up after halftime: New York’s offense kept producing in waves rather than fading after building a lead.

The Knicks’ win matters for two reasons. First, the sweep sends them back to the Eastern Conference Finals for the second straight season, confirming that Philadelphia’s matchup issues weren’t flukes. Second, it reinforces how complete the Knicks have looked at the worst possible moments for opponents: in Game 4, there was no late suspense—New York’s third and fourth-quarter execution turned the contest into a rout.

Even with Philly eliminating itself, the matchup didn’t end quietly. The series became a stage for the Knicks’ road-tested swagger, with Knicks fans heavily present in Philadelphia and players reacting to the atmosphere.

Bottom line: the Knicks didn’t just win Game 4—they engineered separation through volume and accuracy from outside the arc, then maintained control until the final buzzer. That’s what turns a playoff series into a sweep.
