After Action Report
In New York, the Knicks rolled past the Bulls 126-99. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Knicks cashed in. Knicks' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; second-chance points piled up for the Knicks. The Knicks locker room is humming, and it showed. Knicks' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.
