After Action Report
In Boston, the Knicks buried the Celtics 118-98. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Knicks cashed in. Knicks' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Knicks bench chemistry carried them. Knicks' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.
What tipped it
