After Action Report

The Knicks outlasted the Hornets 142-136 in overtime. The Hornets had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Knicks' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Knicks owned the glass, generating extra possessions.

What tipped it

  • Hornets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Knicks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Knicks · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
