After Action Report
The Pacers pulled away from the Knicks 108-97. Every possession went the Pacers way. Pacers' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes; Knicks' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. Whispers of a Knicks locker-room rift aren't helping. The Knicks rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.
What tipped it
- Knicks · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
