After Action Report
In Miami, the Knicks rolled past the Heat 114-84. Knicks' offense had its way with the Heat. Knicks' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Knicks owned the glass, generating extra possessions. The Knicks bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the Knicks per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Garbage time started early.

- Knicks · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Knicks · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
