After Action Report
In Denver, the Nuggets took care of the Lakers 123-105. The Nuggets got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Nuggets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Nuggets came in with something to prove after a loss.
What tipped it
- Nuggets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Nuggets · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Lakers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
