The Hawks snuck past the Knicks 127-125 in overtime. The tempo dragged the Knicks into a rhythm they couldn't survive. Knicks' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Knicks owned the glass, generating extra possessions. The Hawks rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift.
