After Action Report
The Knicks outlasted the Hawks 121-104. The Hawks had no answer for the variance gods tonight. The Knicks played with the chip of a recent gutting loss; the Knicks bent the defense out of shape from deep. Knicks' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
What tipped it
