After Action Report
In Boston, the Knicks snuck past the Celtics 112-110 in overtime. Knicks' offense had its way with the Celtics. The Knicks steamroller is in full effect right now; the Knicks bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Knicks bench chemistry carried them. Knicks' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
