After Action Report
The Knicks snuck past the Suns 109-107. The tempo dragged the Suns into a rhythm they couldn't survive. The Knicks pushed the pace until the other side broke; second-chance points piled up for the Suns. Knicks' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Style points be damned.
