After Action Report
The Knicks demolished the Nuggets 118-69. The Nuggets had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Knicks' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; second-chance points piled up for the Knicks. The Knicks bench chemistry carried them. The Knicks rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Garbage time started early.

- Knicks · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
