After Action Report

In Golden State, the Knicks survived the Warriors 103-100. The Warriors couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Knicks. Knicks' shot-blockers turned the paint into a no-fly zone; the Knicks played with the chip of a recent gutting loss. The Knicks bench chemistry carried them. Knicks' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Style points be damned.
