After Action Report

The Knicks pulled away from the Heat 101-91. The Knicks won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. Knicks' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Knicks carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one. The Knicks bench chemistry carried them. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.

What tipped it

  • Heat · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Knicks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
