After Action Report
The Knicks demolished the Cavaliers 120-99. Knicks controlled the tempo from tip to buzzer. Knicks' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Knicks came in with something to prove after a loss. The Knicks bench chemistry carried them. Cavaliers' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.
