After Action Report
The Nuggets ran roughshod over the Heat 124-97. Nuggets' scorers couldn't be contained. The Nuggets answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; the Nuggets bent the defense out of shape from deep. Whispers of a Heat locker-room rift aren't helping. Garbage time started early.
What tipped it
- Heat · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Nuggets · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
