After Action Report
The Knicks outlasted the Bulls 105-89. Knicks' scorers couldn't be contained. The Knicks sent shots into the fifth row all night; the Knicks came in with something to prove after a loss. The Knicks locker room is humming, and it showed. Tonight's Bulls utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
