Agree, that's what I was implying when I said make 'em feel you. The Knicks were more aggressive at the point of attack and on the ballhandler and forced more turnovers. More fouls, but the fouls didn't hurt them when it mattered (i.e. didn't just give away free points at the end of the game). I thought the officiating in this one was brutal, but I'm glad they stayed aggressive on ball. Mikal rested way more and was effective in a much shorter run - I'm not sure how much those two things have to do with each other, but you gotta think it does have some correlation.
