After Action Report
In New York, the Knicks ran roughshod over the Heat 125-93. Knicks torched the Heat on the offensive end. Knicks' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Knicks answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Knicks locker room is humming, and it showed. The Knicks rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. It was over by halftime.
