After Action Report
In New York, the Knicks rolled past the Cavaliers 115-88. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Second-chance points piled up for the Knicks; Cavaliers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. The Knicks locker room is humming, and it showed. Cavaliers' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Garbage time started early.
What tipped it
- Knicks · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Knicks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Cavaliers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
