After Action Report
The Knicks fended off the Wizards 107-100. Execution down the stretch made the difference. The Knicks owned the glass, generating extra possessions; Knicks' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Wizards rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.
What tipped it
- Knicks · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Wizards · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
