After Action Report
The Nuggets squeaked past the Lakers 119-116. The Lakers had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Nuggets' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Nuggets' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo.
What tipped it
- Lakers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Nuggets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
