After Action Report
In Portland, the Knicks demolished the Trail Blazers 129-95. The Knicks got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. You could feel the revenge motivation from the Knicks; Knicks' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Knicks bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the Knicks per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.
