After Action Report
The Nuggets outlasted the Knicks 104-97. The tempo dragged the Knicks into a rhythm they couldn't survive. Shots just aren't falling for the Nuggets lately; Nuggets' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. Nuggets' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Survive-and-advance type win.
What tipped it
- Nuggets · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Nuggets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
