After Action Report
The Nuggets blew the doors off the Trail Blazers 130-106. Nuggets' offense had its way with the Trail Blazers. Nuggets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; fresh off a statement win, the Nuggets stayed locked in. Whispers of a Trail Blazers locker-room rift aren't helping. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.
What tipped it
- Trail Blazers · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Trail Blazers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- 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.
