After Action Report

The Hornets squeaked past the Knicks 134-130 in overtime. Hornets controlled the tempo from tip to buzzer. Hornets' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Hornets' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. The Hornets bench chemistry carried them. Knicks' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan.

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 · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Hornets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
