After Action Report
The Knicks outlasted the Bulls 100-84. The Bulls couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Knicks. The Knicks owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Knicks answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Bulls rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Style points be damned.
