After Action Report
In a track meet, the Pacers downed the Knicks 118-102. The breakneck pace played right into Pacers' hands. Pacers' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo; shots just aren't falling for the Knicks lately. Whispers of a Knicks locker-room rift aren't helping. Tonight's Knicks utilization choices clashed with the team identity.
What tipped it
- Knicks · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Knicks · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
