After Action Report

The Grizzlies blew the doors off the Nuggets 116-92. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Grizzlies cashed in. Grizzlies' defenders refused to give up clean looks; the Nuggets owned the glass, generating extra possessions. Grizzlies' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.

What tipped it

  • Nuggets · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Nuggets · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
