The Nuggets ran roughshod over the Suns 147-96. Nuggets' scorers couldn't be contained. Nuggets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; fresh off a statement win, the Nuggets stayed locked in. The Nuggets locker room is humming, and it showed. Nuggets' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Never a doubt in this one.
