After Action Report

The Knicks squeaked past the Bobcats 113-112. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Knicks cashed in. Knicks' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense; the Bobcats carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one. The Knicks bench chemistry carried them. Knicks' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
