After Action Report
In New York, the Knicks outlasted the Hornets 119-103. Knicks' scorers couldn't be contained. Knicks' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Knicks answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. Knicks' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
What tipped it
