After Action Report
The Knicks squeaked past the Lakers 112-107. Ugly basketball, but the Knicks did just enough. Knicks' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; Knicks' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Knicks rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Survive-and-advance type win.
What tipped it
- Lakers · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
- Knicks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
