After Action Report
The Knicks demolished the Nets 133-101. The breakneck pace played right into Knicks' hands. Knicks' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo; Nets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. The Knicks locker room is humming, and it showed. Knicks' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Never a doubt in this one.
What tipped it
- Knicks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Nets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
