After Action Report
The Knicks outlasted the Timberwolves 101-93. The Timberwolves couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Knicks. Knicks' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Knicks answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Knicks locker room is humming, and it showed. Knicks' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Survive-and-advance type win.
