After Action Report
The Nuggets held off the Rockets 101-92. The Nuggets won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. Nuggets' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Nuggets' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. Nuggets' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Survive-and-advance type win.
