After Action Report

The Nuggets fended off the 76ers 127-119. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Nuggets cashed in. Nuggets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Nuggets carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one. Nuggets' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.

What tipped it

  • 76ers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • 76ers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Nuggets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Nuggets · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
