After Action Report
In New York, the Knicks pulled away from the Hornets 94-83. The Knicks won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. Hornets' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. Knicks' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
