After Action Report
The Knicks snuck past the Trail Blazers 118-116. The breakneck pace played right into Knicks' hands. The Knicks pushed the pace until the other side broke; the Trail Blazers are in a full-on tailspin. Knicks' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
