After Action Report
In Sacramento, the Nuggets handled the Kings 139-123. The tempo dragged the Kings into a rhythm they couldn't survive. Nuggets' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo; the Kings answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. Nuggets' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
