The Nuggets demolished the Jazz 109-87. The better team simply showed up tonight. Nuggets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; you could feel the revenge motivation from the Nuggets. The Nuggets locker room is humming, and it showed. Nuggets' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.

- Nuggets · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
