After Action Report
The Nuggets rolled past the Celtics 139-110. The breakneck pace played right into Nuggets' hands. The Nuggets answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; the Nuggets pushed the pace until the other side broke. Celtics' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Never a doubt in this one.
What tipped it
- Nuggets · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Celtics · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
