After Action Report

The Nuggets survived the Mavericks 112-107. Nuggets' scorers couldn't be contained. Nuggets' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Nuggets' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Mavericks looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Mavericks' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Style points be damned.

What tipped it

  • Nuggets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Mavericks · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Mavericks · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
