After Action Report
In Phoenix, the Nuggets ran roughshod over the Suns 120-88. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Nuggets cashed in. The Nuggets ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire; the Nuggets bent the defense out of shape from deep. Early returns: the Nuggets per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Never a doubt in this one.
