After Action Report
The Nuggets outlasted the Grizzlies 104-85. The Nuggets won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. The Nuggets answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; Nuggets' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Nuggets locker room is humming, and it showed. The Grizzlies rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
