After Action Report

The Knicks ran roughshod over the Grizzlies 113-87. Knicks' scorers couldn't be contained. Knicks' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Knicks ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire. The Knicks bench chemistry carried them. Grizzlies' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. It was over by halftime.

What tipped it

  • Grizzlies · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
  • Grizzlies · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Knicks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Knicks · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
  • Knicks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
