After Action Report
The Nuggets squeaked past the Warriors 106-105. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Nuggets' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo; the Warriors owned the glass, generating extra possessions. Nuggets' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
