After Action Report

The Nuggets ran roughshod over the Pacers 120-96. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Nuggets cashed in. Nuggets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Nuggets carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one. It was over by halftime.

What tipped it

  • Nuggets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Nuggets · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
  • Pacers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
