After Action Report
In a track meet, the Knicks pulled away from the Hornets 124-106. Knicks' scorers couldn't be contained. Knicks' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo; the Hornets couldn't shake the cold spell. The Hornets looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Early returns: the Knicks per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.
What tipped it
- Hornets · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Hornets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
