After Action Report
The Nuggets snuck past the Knicks 116-114. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Nuggets cashed in. The Nuggets are in a full-on tailspin; the Knicks steamroller is in full effect right now. Early returns: the Nuggets per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.

- Knicks · Buzzsaw An 8+ game winning streak — they cannot be stopped (until the league catches up).
- Knicks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
