After Action Report

The Nuggets buried the Magic 135-87. The Magic had no answer for the variance gods tonight. The Nuggets owned the glass, generating extra possessions. The Nuggets locker room is humming, and it showed. Magic's per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Never a doubt in this one.

What tipped it

  • Nuggets · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Nuggets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
