After Action Report
The Knicks squeaked past the Celtics 108-106. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Knicks' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Knicks' old heads steadied the ship in the swings.
What tipped it
- Knicks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Celtics · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Celtics · Block Party Multiple shot-blockers turn the paint into a no-fly zone.
- Celtics · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
- Celtics · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
