After Action Report
In New York, the Knicks outlasted the Hawks 123-106. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Knicks cashed in. The Knicks owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Hawks couldn't shake the cold spell. The Hawks looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger.
What tipped it
- Knicks · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Hawks · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Hawks · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
