After Action Report
The Nuggets survived the Trail Blazers 117-115. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Nuggets cashed in. Nuggets' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Nuggets carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one. Nuggets' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
What tipped it
- Nuggets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Nuggets · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
