After Action Report

The Suns squeaked past the Nuggets 108-106. The Nuggets couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Suns. The Superstar Stack delivered when it mattered for the Suns; the Suns steamroller is in full effect right now. The Suns bench chemistry carried them. Suns' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.

What tipped it

  • Nuggets · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • Suns · Superstar Stack Two or more 90-overall stars bend games to their will on both ends.
  • Suns · Buzzsaw An 8+ game winning streak — they cannot be stopped (until the league catches up).
  • Suns · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
