After Action Report
The Knicks outlasted the Bobcats 95-88. The Bobcats couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Knicks. The Knicks owned the glass, generating extra possessions; Bobcats' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. The Knicks bench chemistry carried them. Bobcats' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Survive-and-advance type win.
