After Action Report
In Denver, the Trail Blazers blew the doors off the Nuggets 133-105. The Trail Blazers got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Fresh off a statement win, the Trail Blazers stayed locked in; the Nuggets are in a full-on tailspin. Whispers of a Nuggets locker-room rift aren't helping. It broke open after the break.
What tipped it
- Nuggets · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Nuggets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Trail Blazers · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
