After Action Report
The Knicks survived the Trail Blazers 84-82. The Trail Blazers couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Knicks. Knicks' defenders refused to give up clean looks; the Trail Blazers couldn't shake the cold spell. Survive-and-advance type win.
What tipped it
- Trail Blazers · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Knicks · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
