After Action Report
In Denver, the Nuggets handled the Jazz 115-99. The breakneck pace played right into Nuggets' hands. Nuggets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Nuggets owned the glass, generating extra possessions. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Nuggets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Nuggets · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Nuggets · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
