After Action Report
The Knicks survived the Pistons 104-103. The better team simply showed up tonight. The Knicks bent the defense out of shape from deep; second-chance points piled up for the Pistons. The Knicks locker room is humming, and it showed. Knicks' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
