After Action Report
In Denver, the Nuggets buried the 76ers 100-73. Ugly basketball, but the Nuggets did just enough. The Nuggets came in with something to prove after a loss; 76ers' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes. The Nuggets locker room is humming, and it showed. 76ers' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. It was over by halftime.
