After Action Report
In Miami, the Knicks ran roughshod over the Heat 126-105. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Knicks cashed in. The Heat couldn't shake the cold spell; Heat's old heads steadied the ship in the swings. The Knicks bench chemistry carried them. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.
What tipped it
- Heat · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Knicks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
