After Action Report
The Nuggets handled the Grizzlies 96-81. The Nuggets won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. The Grizzlies answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Nuggets locker room is humming, and it showed. Nuggets' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
