After Action Report
The Nuggets fended off the Cavaliers 107-98. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Nuggets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; Cavaliers' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. The Nuggets locker room is humming, and it showed. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
