After Action Report
The Nuggets took care of the Cavaliers 110-98. The tempo dragged the Cavaliers into a rhythm they couldn't survive. The Nuggets couldn't shake the cold spell; the Nuggets pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Cavaliers rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Style points be damned.
