After Action Report
In Denver, the Knicks buried the Nuggets 121-79. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Knicks cashed in. Shots just aren't falling for the Knicks lately; the Knicks bent the defense out of shape from deep. Whispers of a Nuggets locker-room rift aren't helping. The Knicks rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. It was over by halftime.
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 · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
