After Action Report

In Denver, the Knicks ran roughshod over the Nuggets 115-94. Knicks controlled the tempo from tip to buzzer. The Knicks carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; the Knicks pushed the pace until the other side broke. Whispers of a Nuggets locker-room rift aren't helping. Nuggets' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Never a doubt in this one.

What tipped it

  • Nuggets · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
  • Nuggets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Knicks · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
