After Action Report
The 76ers blew the doors off the Nuggets 118-75. 76ers controlled the tempo from tip to buzzer. The 76ers carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; Nuggets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. Whispers of a Nuggets locker-room rift aren't helping. Never a doubt in this one.
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.
- Nuggets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- 76ers · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
