After Action Report
In New York, the Knicks ran roughshod over the Hornets 130-76. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Knicks cashed in. Knicks' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; second-chance points piled up for the Knicks. The Knicks locker room is humming, and it showed. Tonight's Hornets utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Never a doubt in this one.
What tipped it
- Knicks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Knicks · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Knicks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
