After Action Report
In Miami, the Knicks blew the doors off the Heat 119-91. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Knicks cashed in. The Knicks carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; Knicks' outside barrage was a constant threat. The Knicks bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the Knicks per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. It was over by halftime.
