After Action Report
The Knicks pulled away from the Lakers 108-93. Knicks' starting five clicked while the Lakers looked disjointed. Knicks' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense; Lakers' skid keeps deepening — heads down on both ends. Whispers of a Lakers locker-room rift aren't helping. Knicks' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
What tipped it
- Lakers · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Lakers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
