After Action Report
The Knicks snuck past the Nuggets 100-96. The Nuggets couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Knicks. Knicks' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; second-chance points piled up for the Knicks. The Knicks locker room is humming, and it showed. Style points be damned.
What tipped it

- Knicks · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Knicks · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Knicks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
