After Action Report
The Knicks fended off the Wizards 127-120 in overtime. The breakneck pace played right into Knicks' hands. Knicks' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo; Wizards' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. Tonight's Wizards utilization choices clashed with the team identity.
What tipped it
- Wizards · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Wizards · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
