After Action Report
The Knicks pulled away from the Celtics 115-100. 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 rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift.
