The Knicks survived the Bulls 114-110. Execution down the stretch made the difference. The Knicks ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire; Knicks' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Knicks locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Knicks per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.
