After Action Report
The Knicks squeaked past the Pacers 92-91. Ugly basketball, but the Knicks did just enough. The Knicks carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; Pacers' skid keeps deepening — heads down on both ends. Whispers of a Pacers locker-room rift aren't helping. The Knicks rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Survive-and-advance type win.
What tipped it
- Pacers · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Pacers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Knicks · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
