After Action Report
The Knicks ran roughshod over the Lakers 123-91. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Knicks cashed in. Second-chance points piled up for the Knicks; the Lakers are in a full-on tailspin. The Knicks bench chemistry carried them. The Knicks rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. It broke open after the break.
