After Action Report
The Nuggets squeaked past the Suns 84-83. The Nuggets won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. The Nuggets came in with something to prove after a loss; the Suns bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Suns rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Survive-and-advance type win.
