After Action Report

The Knicks survived the Pistons 113-111. The better team simply showed up tonight. Knicks' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; you could feel the revenge motivation from the Knicks. The Knicks bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the Knicks per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.
