After Action Report
The Nuggets ran roughshod over the Mavericks 131-101. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Nuggets cashed in. Mavericks' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Mavericks came in with something to prove after a loss. The Nuggets locker room is humming, and it showed. Garbage time started early.
What tipped it
- Nuggets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Mavericks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Mavericks · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
