After Action Report
In Cleveland, the Cavaliers snuck past the Knicks 112-107. The Cavaliers won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. Knicks' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Knicks carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Knicks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Knicks · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
