After Action Report
The Nuggets held off the Mavericks 120-111. The tempo dragged the Mavericks into a rhythm they couldn't survive. Nuggets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; second-chance points piled up for the Nuggets. Nuggets' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
What tipped it
