After Action Report
In New York, the Knicks handled the Hawks 107-96. Knicks torched the Hawks on the offensive end. The Knicks answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; Hawks' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. The Knicks locker room is humming, and it showed. Knicks' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Style points be damned.
