After Action Report
The Rockets survived the Knicks 108-107. The tempo dragged the Knicks into a rhythm they couldn't survive. The Rockets pushed the pace until the other side broke; shots just aren't falling for the Knicks lately. The Knicks looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Rockets' 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
- Knicks · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Knicks · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
