After Action Report

In Houston, the Nuggets ran roughshod over the Rockets 122-99. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Nuggets cashed in. Nuggets' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; second-chance points piled up for the Nuggets. The Nuggets bench chemistry carried them. Never a doubt in this one.

What tipped it

  • Nuggets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Nuggets · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Nuggets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
