After Action Report
The Knicks squeaked past the Cavaliers 104-100. Ugly basketball, but the Knicks did just enough. Knicks' defenders refused to give up clean looks; Cavaliers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. Knicks' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Cavaliers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Cavaliers · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
