McBride's Game-by-Game Numbers From Round 1 of NBA Playoffs
Just one day after former WVU guard Joe Mazzulla advanced to the Eastern Conference semifinals with the Boston Celtics with a series win over the Miami Heat, fellow Mountaineer basketball alum Miles “Deuce” McBride and the New York Knicks accomplished the same feat.
The Knicks took down the Philadelphia 76ers 118-115 to advance, winning the series 4-2.
McBride had a rather quiet outing, scoring just three points on 1/4 shooting, all of which came from beyond the three-point line. He played just nine minutes which is by far the least he’s played in this year’s playoffs.
McBride will now take on the Indiana Pacers with Game 1 of the series tipping off on Monday night at 7:30 p.m. EST on TNT
