After Action Report
The Knicks took care of the Celtics 108-89. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Knicks' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; fresh off a statement win, the Knicks stayed locked in. The Knicks bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the Knicks per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.
