After Action Report
The Knicks survived the Celtics 122-118. The Knicks got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Knicks' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Knicks owned the glass, generating extra possessions. Knicks' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
What tipped it
- Knicks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Knicks · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Knicks · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
