After Action Report
The Nuggets blew the doors off the Trail Blazers 120-100. The Nuggets got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The Nuggets owned the glass, generating extra possessions; Trail Blazers' defenders refused to give up clean looks. Early returns: the Nuggets per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Never a doubt in this one.
