After Action Report
The Knicks fended off the Pacers 103-97. The better team simply showed up tonight. The Knicks answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; Knicks' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Knicks locker room is humming, and it showed. Knicks' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Style points be damned.
