After Action Report
In a track meet, the Nuggets buried the Suns 118-92. The tempo dragged the Suns into a rhythm they couldn't survive. The Nuggets came in with something to prove after a loss; Nuggets' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Nuggets bench chemistry carried them. Suns' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Garbage time started early.
