In a win that looked and felt very similar to the first 10 games for Denver, the Nuggets eventually got the job done at home, even if they used their unorthodox, defense/PITP approach to do it.
The Nuggets held Memphis to 50% shooting from the field and just 33.3% shooting from 3-point range and, of course, just 99 points.
They also had 11 steals and 6 blocks, grabbed 29 defensive rebounds and allowed just 6 offensive rebounds. It was another successful night for the young and much improved Denver defense.
Their offense continued to underwhelm, however.
