After Action Report
The Nuggets survived the Heat 123-119. Nuggets controlled the tempo from tip to buzzer. The Nuggets pushed the pace until the other side broke; Heat's Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. Nuggets' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
