After Action Report
The Knicks outlasted the Rockets 113-104. Knicks' offense had its way with the Rockets. The Knicks owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Knicks answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Knicks locker room is humming, and it showed. The Knicks rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
