After Action Report
The Knicks survived the Warriors 97-96. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Knicks' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense; the Warriors played with the chip of a recent gutting loss. Whispers of a Warriors locker-room rift aren't helping. Warriors' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan.
What tipped it
- Warriors · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
- Warriors · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
