TORONTO — It was hard to know what to think.
The Nuggets were shooting the lights out. No, not just for them — for any team. Jumpers were falling left and right, and they didn't just settle for those. They pounded the ball into the paint as much as possible, too.
But these were the Nuggets, so bracing for the inevitable fall was also a proper course of action. It had happened every time in this road trip, whether it was being on the wrong side of Chicago's game-deciding 12-2 run in the fourth quarter or Dallas' 25-5 third quarter.
