After Action Report

The Knicks handled the Heat 115-100. The Knicks got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The Knicks carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; Heat's Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. The Knicks bench chemistry carried them. Knicks' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.

  • Knicks · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
