After Action Report
In New York, the Spurs handled the Knicks 143-131. The Spurs got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Spurs' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; second-chance points piled up for the Knicks. Tonight's Knicks utilization choices clashed with the team identity.
What tipped it
- Knicks · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Spurs · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
