After Action Report
The Nuggets fended off the Spurs 118-110. The breakneck pace played right into Nuggets' hands. Nuggets' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Nuggets bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Nuggets bench chemistry carried them. The Nuggets rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Survive-and-advance type win.
