After Action Report
In New York, the Knicks downed the Hawks 112-100. Knicks torched the Hawks on the offensive end. Knicks' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Knicks owned the glass, generating extra possessions. The Hawks looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Style points be damned.
