After Action Report
In Denver, the Nuggets ran roughshod over the Clippers 115-93. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Nuggets' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense; Clippers' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Nuggets locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Nuggets per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Garbage time started early.
