After Action Report
In Los Angeles, the Lakers handled the Nuggets 127-113. The Nuggets had no answer for the variance gods tonight. The Lakers bent the defense out of shape from deep; Nuggets' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. The Nuggets rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.
