After Action Report
The Nuggets fended off the Pistons 120-114 in overtime. Nuggets torched the Pistons on the offensive end. Shots just aren't falling for the Nuggets lately; second-chance points piled up for the Pistons. Whispers of a Pistons locker-room rift aren't helping. The Pistons rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.
