After Action Report
The Cavaliers survived the Knicks 106-103. The Knicks couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Cavaliers. The Cavaliers came in with something to prove after a loss; Knicks' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. The Cavaliers bench chemistry carried them. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Knicks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Cavaliers · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Cavaliers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
