After Action Report
The Nuggets rolled past the Pacers 127-78. Nuggets torched the Pacers on the offensive end. The Nuggets played with the chip of a recent gutting loss; Nuggets' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Pacers looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Pacers' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Never a doubt in this one.
What tipped it
- Nuggets · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
- Pacers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
