After Action Report
The Knicks took care of the Suns 126-112. The tempo dragged the Suns into a rhythm they couldn't survive. Knicks' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Knicks are in a full-on tailspin.
What tipped it
- Suns · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Knicks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Knicks · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
