After Action Report
The Nuggets handled the Pacers 136-126. The breakneck pace played right into Nuggets' hands. The Nuggets pushed the pace until the other side broke; Pacers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. Nuggets' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
What tipped it
- Pacers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Pacers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
