After Action Report
The Nuggets demolished the Hawks 128-91. The Hawks had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Hawks' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Hawks owned the glass, generating extra possessions. Nuggets' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. It was over by halftime.
