After Action Report

The Hornets took care of the Knicks 119-107. The Knicks had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Hornets' defenders refused to give up clean looks; Knicks' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. The Hornets bench chemistry carried them.

What tipped it

  • 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.
  • Hornets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
