After Action Report
In Denver, the Nuggets upended the Mavericks 112-107. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Nuggets' old heads steadied the ship in the swings; the Mavericks couldn't shake the cold spell. The Nuggets locker room is humming, and it showed. Tonight's Mavericks utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Add it to the list of nights the favorite forgot to show up.
What tipped it
