After Action Report
The Nets blew the doors off the Knicks 139-77. The Knicks had no answer for the variance gods tonight. The Nets answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; the Knicks are in a full-on tailspin. Whispers of a Knicks locker-room rift aren't helping. Never a doubt in this one.
What tipped it
- Knicks · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Knicks · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Nets · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
