After Action Report

In New York, the Knicks rolled past the Heat 137-90. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Knicks cashed in. Knicks' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Knicks carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one. The Heat looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Tonight's Heat utilization choices clashed with the team identity. It was over by halftime.

What tipped it

  • Knicks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Knicks · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
  • Heat · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Heat · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
