Michal Bridges struggled to contain Trae Young at most of the night. But he closed it when it was more important.
Young scored 38 points and made 19 decisive passes in Nix's 149-148 victory over the hawks on Wednesday night in Madison Square Garden, which helped the return of Wild Atlanta in the fourth quarter to force the additional work.
After Gallin Bronson drilled the bird to put Nix in the forefront in the final result, while staying 11 seconds staying in stoppage time, Young threatened to break the hearts of Nix again.
But the bridges prevented the floating Young, and although the hawks took over the bounce, the three George Niang index was out and Nix survived.
Coach Tom Thebodo said about the bridges: “His determination, his determination, the will, the deposited, does so after the match.” “And Trae is a burden to deal with it because you can get the first [screen] To the right and then the second next, then there is a third and then get the determination to continue fighting and continue to do this over and over again. This is many of the screens you are fighting. You cannot say enough about what every team's game sacrifices and what it means to win. “
The bridges added 11 points.
“Only everyone helps each other try to win the game,” Bridges said of the final station. “It made it difficult for everyone.”

Og Anunoby will continue to return even after the All-Star break.
He was absent from a win on Wednesday, the fifth consecutive game that was outside it since it was subjected to an excellent foot spice while the team lost to Lakers on February 1.
Nix included it as doubtful in the game-the same classification that he achieved to win Tuesday over Pacers-Thibodeau said it is a decision at the time of the game, but Anunoby did not fit.
The warm -up was not on the field before the game, so it seems that it was not soon.
It will not make sense to release to again in Wednesday's match, which is the last time before the break.
Instead, he will have another week to recover before the next match for KNICKS, against Bulls, on February 20.
“It is daily,” Thebodo said before Wednesday. “It is tolerance. Exercise, see how the next day feels, how to respond, so we.”
Miles McBraide It was also listed as doubtful and described as a game at the time of the game with a rib injury.
Play, but he got out of the game early with a rib bruise.
Hart pointed out his finger directly in the face of Niang after the latter missed the possible shot to win the game with the end of time in the extra time.
It is not clear what prompted Hart's reaction, and Nix closed the cabinet room after the match before he could speak.
