After Action Report
The Nuggets ran roughshod over the Spurs 118-97. The Spurs had no answer for the variance gods tonight. The Spurs came in with something to prove after a loss; the Spurs bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Nuggets bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the Nuggets per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.
