After Action Report
The Knicks downed the Clippers 131-119. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Knicks cashed in. The Knicks looked unstoppable — pure Buzzsaw mode; the Knicks bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Knicks locker room is humming, and it showed. Knicks' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
