After Action Report

The Knicks survived the Bucks 98-96. The Bucks couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Knicks. Knicks' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Knicks owned the glass, generating extra possessions. The Knicks locker room is humming, and it showed. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.

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 · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Bucks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
