After Action Report

The Nuggets downed the Clippers 110-97. The better team simply showed up tonight. The Nuggets owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Nuggets pushed the pace until the other side broke. Early returns: the Nuggets per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.

What tipped it

  • Nuggets · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Clippers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
