After Action Report
The Knicks downed the Nets 117-101. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Knicks' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Knicks' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Knicks locker room is humming, and it showed. Knicks' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
