After Action Report
The Knicks took care of the Mavericks 104-94. The Mavericks had no answer for the variance gods tonight. The Knicks are in a full-on tailspin; Knicks' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. Knicks' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
What tipped it
- Knicks · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Knicks · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Mavericks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
