After Action Report
The Knicks pulled away from the Nuggets 99-87. The Knicks won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. The Knicks came in with something to prove after a loss; Nuggets' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. The Knicks bench chemistry carried them. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
