After Action Report
The Knicks fended off the Pacers 97-89. The better team simply showed up tonight. The Knicks carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; Knicks' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. The Knicks bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the Knicks per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
