After Action Report
The Nuggets held off the Grizzlies 100-93. The Grizzlies couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Nuggets. The Nuggets carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; the Grizzlies came in with something to prove after a loss. The Nuggets locker room is humming, and it showed. Nuggets' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
