After Action Report

In Denver, the Mavericks fended off the Nuggets 112-105. Ugly basketball, but the Mavericks did just enough. Nuggets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; second-chance points piled up for the Nuggets. The Mavericks bench chemistry carried them. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
