After Action Report
The Knicks held off the Bobcats 104-96. Ugly basketball, but the Knicks did just enough. Knicks' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Bobcats owned the glass, generating extra possessions. The Knicks locker room is humming, and it showed. Survive-and-advance type win.
What tipped it
- Knicks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Knicks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Bobcats · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Bobcats · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
