After Action Report
The Nuggets squeaked past the Bobcats 118-116. The breakneck pace played right into Nuggets' hands. Nuggets' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo; second-chance points piled up for the Bobcats. The Nuggets locker room is humming, and it showed. Nuggets' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
