After Action Report

The Suns ran roughshod over the Nuggets 111-74. The better team simply showed up tonight. Suns' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; Suns' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes. The Suns locker room is humming, and it showed. The Nuggets rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. It was over by halftime.

What tipped it

  • Suns · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Suns · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Nuggets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
