After Action Report
The Nuggets survived the Timberwolves 114-113. Nuggets controlled the tempo from tip to buzzer. The Nuggets carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; the Nuggets pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Nuggets locker room is humming, and it showed. Nuggets' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
