After Action Report
The Mavericks squeaked past the Nuggets 92-91. The Mavericks won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. Mavericks' outside barrage was a constant threat; Nuggets' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. Tonight's Nuggets utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Nuggets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Nuggets · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
