After Action Report

In Denver, the Nuggets survived the Pistons 138-133. The Nuggets got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Nuggets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; Nuggets' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Nuggets locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Nuggets per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.
