After Action Report
The Knicks snuck past the Hornets 102-101. The better team simply showed up tonight. Second-chance points piled up for the Knicks; Hornets' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Hornets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Hornets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Knicks · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
