The Knicks buried the Nets 141-103. The Knicks got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Fresh off a statement win, the Knicks stayed locked in; fresh off a statement win, the Nets stayed locked in. The Knicks locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Knicks per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Garbage time started early.
