Fresh off a statement win, the Trail Blazers stayed locked in; the Nuggets carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one. The Trail Blazers bench chemistry carried them. The Nuggets rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.
