The Nuggets ran into a buzzsaw last night as the Rockets won their 15th game in a row. Carmelo Anthony led the way for the Nuggets with 19 points, 6 rebounds and 4 assists. Allen Iverson shot only 7 of 22 from the floor last night but he still finished with 17 points, 3 rebounds, 4 assists and 3 steals. Kenyon Martin and J.R. Smith each pitched in with 12 points apiece. The Nuggets are now 35-24 on the season.
The Nuggets hope that Taurean Green can help them out as a backup guard and that’s why they moved Von Wafer for him. Green has played in only 1 game for the Nuggets this season and he scored 4 points, grabbed 3 rebounds and dished out 1 assist. Green has now played in 9 games (0 starts) this season for the Nuggets and Blazers and he is averaging 5.6 minutes, 2.3 points, 0.8 rebounds and 1.0 assist per game. Green likely has a better upside than Wafer so the Nuggets were smart to bring him in.
The Nuggets outrebounded the Clippers 55-41 on Friday Night and that was a big key to victory. Allen Iverson led the way for the Nuggets with 38 points, 4 rebounds and 6 assists. Carmelo Anthony had another great game as he finished with 30 points, 14 rebounds, 6 assists and 2 blocked shots. Kenyon Martin pitched in with 13 points and 5 rebounds. Marcus Camby was all over the place in this game as he finished with 12 points, 17 rebounds, 2 assists and 6 blocked shots. The Nuggets are now 35-23 on the season.
