After Action Report
The Knicks snuck past the Magic 124-121. The tempo dragged the Magic into a rhythm they couldn't survive. Knicks' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Knicks pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Knicks bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the Knicks per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.
What tipped it

- Knicks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
