After Action Report

The Nuggets squeaked past the Warriors 134-132. The Nuggets got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The Nuggets owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Nuggets came in with something to prove after a loss. The Warriors rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.
