After Action Report

In Atlanta, the Knicks demolished the Hawks 124-102. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Knicks cashed in. Fresh off a statement win, the Knicks stayed locked in; Knicks' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. The Knicks bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the Knicks per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. It was over by halftime.
