After Action Report
The Knicks buried the Celtics 119-97. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Knicks cashed in. The Knicks pushed the pace until the other side broke; Celtics' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. Whispers of a Celtics locker-room rift aren't helping. It was over by halftime.
What tipped it
- Celtics · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
