After Action Report
In New York, the Knicks took care of the Nets 117-106. Knicks torched the Nets on the offensive end. The Knicks played with the chip of a recent gutting loss; the Nets answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. Knicks' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
What tipped it
- Knicks · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
- Knicks · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Nets · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
