After Action Report

The Knicks outlasted the Timberwolves 104-98. Ugly basketball, but the Knicks did just enough. Knicks' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Knicks owned the glass, generating extra possessions. The Knicks locker room is humming, and it showed. Survive-and-advance type win.

What tipped it

  • Knicks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Knicks · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Knicks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
