After Action Report
The Knicks squeaked past the Mavericks 111-107. The tempo dragged the Mavericks into a rhythm they couldn't survive. Knicks' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo; second-chance points piled up for the Mavericks. Early returns: the Knicks per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.
