After Action Report

The Nuggets buried the Pacers 126-98. The Nuggets got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Nuggets' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; fresh off a statement win, the Nuggets stayed locked in. The Nuggets locker room is humming, and it showed. Nuggets' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Garbage time started early.

What tipped it

  • Nuggets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Nuggets · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
  • Nuggets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
