After Action Report
The Timberwolves ran roughshod over the Knicks 136-111. The breakneck pace played right into Timberwolves' hands. Knicks' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Knicks owned the glass, generating extra possessions. The Knicks rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Never a doubt in this one.
What tipped it
- Knicks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Knicks · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
