After Action Report
In New York, the Knicks outlasted the Trail Blazers 119-104. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Knicks cashed in. Knicks' defenders refused to give up clean looks; the Trail Blazers came in with something to prove after a loss. The Trail Blazers rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.
