After Action Report

The Nuggets pulled away from the Pacers 127-117. The Pacers had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Nuggets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Nuggets answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Nuggets locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Nuggets per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.
