After Action Report

In a track meet, the Knicks downed the Bobcats 109-91. The Bobcats couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Knicks. You could feel the revenge motivation from the Knicks; Knicks' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. Early returns: the Knicks per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Style points be damned.
