After Action Report
The Lakers pulled away from the Nuggets 119-109. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Lakers cashed in. The Lakers couldn't shake the cold spell; Lakers' outside barrage was a constant threat. Whispers of a Nuggets locker-room rift aren't helping. The Nuggets rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.
What tipped it
- Nuggets · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Nuggets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Lakers · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
