After Action Report

The Knicks demolished the Pacers 136-102. The Knicks got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. 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. The Pacers rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.
