After Action Report
The Knicks ran roughshod over the Bulls 119-89. Knicks' offense had its way with the Bulls. Knicks' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Knicks owned the glass, generating extra possessions. The Knicks locker room is humming, and it showed. Bulls' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Garbage time started early.

- Knicks · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
