After Action Report

The Knicks handled the Wizards 122-107. The tempo dragged the Wizards into a rhythm they couldn't survive. The Knicks answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; the Knicks pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Knicks locker room is humming, and it showed. The Knicks rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift.
