After Action Report
The Knicks buried the Nets 108-83. Knicks' offense had its way with the Nets. Knicks' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; second-chance points piled up for the Knicks. The Nets looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Never a doubt in this one.
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.
- Nets · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Nets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
