After Action Report
In New York, the Nets rolled past the Knicks 120-100. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Nets cashed in. Nets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Nets pushed the pace until the other side broke. Whispers of a Knicks locker-room rift aren't helping. Knicks' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.
What tipped it
- Knicks · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Nets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
