After Action Report
The Knicks took care of the Pacers 105-90. The Pacers couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Knicks. The Knicks ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire; the Pacers are in a full-on tailspin. The Knicks bench chemistry carried them. The Pacers rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Pacers · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Pacers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Knicks · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
- Knicks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
