After Action Report
The Nuggets survived the Spurs 104-102. Ugly basketball, but the Nuggets did just enough. You could feel the revenge motivation from the Spurs; Spurs' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Nuggets bench chemistry carried them. Spurs' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Spurs · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
- Nuggets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
