After Action Report

The Knicks pulled away from the Hornets 117-99. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Knicks' outside barrage was a constant threat; the Hornets couldn't shake the cold spell. The Knicks bench chemistry carried them. Knicks' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.

What tipped it

  • Hornets · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Knicks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
