After Action Report
The Lakers demolished the Nuggets 113-92. The Nuggets had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Shots just aren't falling for the Lakers lately; Nuggets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. Lakers' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Garbage time started early.
What tipped it

- 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.
