After Action Report

The Hawks outlasted the Knicks 112-96. The better team simply showed up tonight. Hawks' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Hawks owned the glass, generating extra possessions. Whispers of a Knicks locker-room rift aren't helping.

What tipped it

  • Knicks · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Knicks · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Hawks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Hawks · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
