After Action Report
In New York, the Knicks squeaked past the Jazz 109-105. The Jazz couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Knicks. Knicks' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Knicks' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Knicks locker room is humming, and it showed. Survive-and-advance type win.
What tipped it
- Knicks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Knicks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Jazz · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
