These numbers don't even take into account the times that the person was fouled. The nuggets spent a lot more time attacking the basket and were rewarded by going to the foul line. Nuggets have lead the league all year in FT attempts because of their aggressive attacking offense, nothing has changed here.

Great points - finally realizing what really happened last night, rather than blaming the refs for the loss.
