After Action Report
In a track meet, the Mavericks outlasted the Nuggets 122-113. The breakneck pace played right into Mavericks' hands. Mavericks' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo; the Nuggets are in a full-on tailspin. Whispers of a Nuggets locker-room rift aren't helping.
What tipped it
- Nuggets · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Nuggets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
