After Action Report

In Denver, the Nuggets blew the doors off the SuperSonics 126-100. The breakneck pace played right into Nuggets' hands. The Nuggets answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; Nuggets' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Nuggets locker room is humming, and it showed. The SuperSonics rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Garbage time started early.
