After Action Report

In New York, the Knicks survived the Bulls 112-111. Execution down the stretch made the difference. 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. Early returns: the Knicks per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.
