After Action Report
The Nuggets squeaked past the Raptors 101-97. Ugly basketball, but the Nuggets did just enough. Nuggets' defenders refused to give up clean looks; shots just aren't falling for the Raptors lately. The Nuggets locker room is humming, and it showed. Tonight's Raptors utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Nuggets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Raptors · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
