After Action Report

The Nuggets handled the Hornets 101-90. The Hornets couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Nuggets. The Nuggets owned the glass, generating extra possessions; fresh off a statement win, the Nuggets stayed locked in. The Nuggets bench chemistry carried them. Hornets' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Survive-and-advance type win.
