After Action Report
The Nuggets took care of the Kings 88-72. Ugly basketball, but the Nuggets did just enough. You could feel the revenge motivation from the Nuggets; the Nuggets bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Kings looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Kings' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Style points be damned.
