After Action Report

In New York, the Knicks snuck past the Bulls 105-101. Ugly basketball, but the Knicks did just enough. The Knicks played with the chip of a recent gutting loss; the Bulls owned the glass, generating extra possessions. The Knicks rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Style points be damned.

What tipped it

  • Bulls · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
