After Action Report
The Knicks buried the Jazz 125-98. Knicks controlled the tempo from tip to buzzer. The Knicks pushed the pace until the other side broke; shots just aren't falling for the Jazz lately. The Jazz looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Early returns: the Knicks per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Never a doubt in this one.
What tipped it
- Jazz · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Jazz · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
