After Action Report
The Nuggets blew the doors off the Pacers 139-114. The Nuggets got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Nuggets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; Nuggets' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.
