The Nuggets buried the Cavaliers 120-95. The Cavaliers had no answer for the variance gods tonight. The Nuggets came in with something to prove after a loss; Nuggets' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Nuggets locker room is humming, and it showed. Cavaliers' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. It was over by halftime.
