After Action Report
The Nuggets blew the doors off the Heat 125-102. Nuggets' offense had its way with the Heat. Nuggets' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Nuggets' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. Early returns: the Nuggets per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. It broke open after the break.
What tipped it
- Heat · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Nuggets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
