After Action Report
The Knicks squeaked past the Spurs 100-98. The Spurs couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Knicks. You could feel the revenge motivation from the Knicks; the Knicks bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Knicks locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Knicks per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
