After Action Report
The Nuggets knocked off the Wizards 132-103. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Nuggets cashed in. The Nuggets carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one; second-chance points piled up for the Wizards. The Nuggets locker room is humming, and it showed. Tonight's Wizards utilization choices clashed with the team identity. On paper this one shouldn't have been close — basketball had other ideas.
