After Action Report
In a track meet, the Nuggets ran roughshod over the Jazz 133-107. The breakneck pace played right into Nuggets' hands. Nuggets' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Nuggets carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one. The Nuggets locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Nuggets per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Garbage time started early.
