After Action Report

In Denver, the Spurs ran roughshod over the Nuggets 124-93. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Spurs cashed in. Spurs' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Spurs bent the defense out of shape from deep. Nuggets' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Garbage time started early.

What tipped it

  • Nuggets · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Nuggets · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • Nuggets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Spurs · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
