After Action Report
The Knicks snuck past the Heat 94-90. Execution down the stretch made the difference. The Knicks are in a full-on tailspin; the Heat carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one. The Heat rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.
What tipped it
- Knicks · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Knicks · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Heat · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
