After Action Report
The Kings downed the Knicks 107-95. The Kings won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. The Kings ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire; the Knicks are in a full-on tailspin. The Kings locker room is humming, and it showed. The Knicks rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Style points be damned.
What tipped it

- Kings · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Knicks · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
