After Action Report
The Knicks buried the Hornets 138-102. The breakneck pace played right into Knicks' hands. Knicks' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo; the Hornets bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Knicks locker room is humming, and it showed. It was over by halftime.
What tipped it
- Knicks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
