After Action Report

The Nuggets buried the Lakers 129-107. The Lakers had no answer for the variance gods tonight. The Nuggets answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; Lakers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. The Nuggets locker room is humming, and it showed. It was over by halftime.
