After Action Report
In Denver, the Mavericks rolled past the Nuggets 116-95. Mavericks' stops on the defensive end set the tone. Nuggets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Nuggets came in with something to prove after a loss. Nuggets' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. It broke open after the break.
What tipped it
- Nuggets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
