After Action Report
In Denver, the Nuggets outlasted the Suns 98-82. Nuggets' scorers couldn't be contained. Nuggets' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Nuggets ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire. The Nuggets locker room is humming, and it showed. Nuggets' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
