After Action Report

In New York, the Knicks fended off the Mavericks 118-109 in overtime. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Knicks cashed in. The Knicks are in a full-on tailspin; Knicks' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense.

What tipped it

  • Knicks · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
  • Knicks · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Mavericks · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
