After Action Report

The Knicks rolled past the Nets 131-98. The Knicks got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Knicks' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Knicks owned the glass, generating extra possessions. The Knicks bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the Knicks per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.
