After Action Report
The Knicks buried the Heat 134-92. The Knicks got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The Knicks owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Heat are in a full-on tailspin. The Knicks locker room is humming, and it showed. Knicks' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Never a doubt in this one.
