After Action Report

In New York, the Knicks squeaked past the Timberwolves 117-112. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Knicks cashed in. Knicks' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo; second-chance points piled up for the Timberwolves.

What tipped it

  • Timberwolves · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Timberwolves · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
