The Nuggets handled the Mavericks 119-105. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Nuggets cashed in. Nuggets' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Nuggets' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Nuggets locker room is humming, and it showed. The Nuggets rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift.
