After Action Report

The Knicks survived the Jazz 106-101. The better team simply showed up tonight. Knicks' shot-blockers turned the paint into a no-fly zone; you could feel the revenge motivation from the Jazz. The Knicks bench chemistry carried them. Knicks' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.

What tipped it

  • Jazz · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
  • Knicks · Block Party Multiple shot-blockers turn the paint into a no-fly zone.
  • Knicks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
