After Action Report

The Knicks outlasted the Celtics 107-91. The Celtics couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Knicks. Knicks' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Knicks ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire. The Knicks bench chemistry carried them. Knicks' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Survive-and-advance type win.
