After Action Report

In New York, the Suns survived the Knicks 94-92. Ugly basketball, but the Suns did just enough. The Suns carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; the Knicks carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one. The Suns bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the Suns per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Style points be damned.
