After Action Report
The Knicks ran roughshod over the Jazz 118-97. The Knicks got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The Jazz owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Jazz answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. Knicks' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. It broke open after the break.
