After Action Report

In New York, the Knicks pulled away from the Pacers 117-106. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Knicks cashed in. The Knicks came in with something to prove after a loss; the Knicks bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Knicks locker room is humming, and it showed. The Knicks rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift.
