After Action Report
The Knicks blew the doors off the Celtics 124-87. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Knicks cashed in. Knicks' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Knicks steamroller is in full effect right now. The Knicks bench chemistry carried them. The Knicks rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Never a doubt in this one.
What tipped it
- Celtics · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Knicks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Knicks · Buzzsaw An 8+ game winning streak — they cannot be stopped (until the league catches up).
- Knicks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
