After Action Report

The Bucks downed the Knicks 131-116. The Knicks had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Fresh off a statement win, the Bucks stayed locked in; the Knicks owned the glass, generating extra possessions. The Bucks bench chemistry carried them. The Knicks rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.
