After Action Report

In Los Angeles, the Knicks took care of the Clippers 124-112. The Knicks got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The Knicks carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one; Knicks' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Knicks bench chemistry carried them. Knicks' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
