After Action Report
The Nuggets outlasted the Rockets 106-97. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Nuggets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Nuggets pushed the pace until the other side broke. Tonight's Rockets utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Style points be damned.
