After Action Report
The Knicks snuck past the Nets 120-119 in overtime. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Knicks cashed in. The Knicks bent the defense out of shape from deep; Nets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. Nets' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan.
What tipped it
- Nets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Nets · Buzzsaw An 8+ game winning streak — they cannot be stopped (until the league catches up).
- Nets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
