After Action Report

The Knicks fended off the Bobcats 113-107. The better team simply showed up tonight. The Knicks owned the glass, generating extra possessions; Bobcats' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Knicks locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Knicks per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.

What tipped it
