After Action Report
The Knicks pulled away from the Trail Blazers 104-91. The Trail Blazers couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Knicks. The Knicks ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire; Knicks' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Knicks bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the Knicks per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Style points be damned.
