After Action Report
The 76ers snuck past the Knicks 119-118. The Knicks had no answer for the variance gods tonight. The 76ers couldn't shake the cold spell; the Knicks answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Knicks rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.
What tipped it
- 76ers · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- 76ers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Knicks · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
