After Action Report
The Knicks survived the Bulls 120-115. The better team simply showed up tonight. Knicks' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Knicks answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Knicks locker room is humming, and it showed. Knicks' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
What tipped it
- Knicks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Knicks · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Knicks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
