After Action Report
In New York, the Knicks squeaked past the Hornets 106-104. The Knicks won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. The Knicks ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire; the Knicks bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Knicks locker room is humming, and it showed. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
