After Action Report
In New York, the Knicks took care of the Bucks 100-87. The Knicks won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. Second-chance points piled up for the Knicks; the Knicks answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Knicks locker room is humming, and it showed. The Bucks rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Survive-and-advance type win.
