After Action Report
In New York, the Knicks buried the Celtics 140-96. The breakneck pace played right into Knicks' hands. Second-chance points piled up for the Knicks; the Knicks pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Celtics rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. It was over by halftime.
