After Action Report
The Knicks outlasted the Bulls 120-112. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Knicks cashed in. The Knicks carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; the Knicks bent the defense out of shape from deep. Early returns: the Knicks per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.
