After Action Report
The Knicks survived the Trail Blazers 110-109. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Knicks cashed in. Second-chance points piled up for the Knicks; the Knicks pushed the pace until the other side broke.
What tipped it
- Trail Blazers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Trail Blazers · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
- Trail Blazers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Knicks · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
