After Action Report
The Knicks took care of the Pacers 114-102. The better team simply showed up tonight. The Knicks bent the defense out of shape from deep; the Pacers owned the glass, generating extra possessions. The Knicks locker room is humming, and it showed. The Knicks rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Knicks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Pacers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
