Rasheed Wallace showed off some serious range and Shaquille O'Neal gave himself a new nickname. Wallace made the miracle shot of the night — maybe of the year — banking home a 60-footer as time expired to send the game to overtime, and the Detroit Pistons went on to beat the Denver Nuggets 113-109 on Monday night.
Allen Iverson feels right at home just in time for the Denver Nuggets' big road trip. Iverson scored 44 points and dished out 15 assists in leading the Nuggets to their fourth straight win, a 131-107 blowout of the Phoenix Suns on Saturday night.
Not a good day or night for Phil Jackson thanks to the NBA and Linas Kleiza. Jackson got fined $50,000 for accusing the league of having a vendetta against Kobe Bryant and then lost a seventh straight game for the first time in his 16-year coaching career Thursday night when the Los Angeles Lakers fell to the Denver Nuggets 113-86.
Before the game, Allen Iverson vowed to help end Denver's league-worst losing streak in Sacramento. After taking care of that key matter, A.I. promised to appeal what he considers the most absurd technical of his career.
The NBA can fine Detroit's Rasheed Wallace all it wants. He's not going to change the way he plays. Money is just not that important to him. Wallace picked up his 16th technical foul of the season — incurring an automatic one-game suspension — in the Pistons' 95-82 victory over the Denver Nuggets on Friday night.
Now that they are finally healthy, the Golden State Warriors think they can make a run at a playoff spot.
With ice wrapped around both knees and a towel draped around his neck, an exhausted Dikembe Mutombo felt his age. Earlier, though, he didn't. "The old man can still rebound," Mutombo said after becoming the oldest player in NBA history to record over 20 rebounds in a game, finishing with 22 boards in the Houston Rockets' 108-97 victory over the Denver Nuggets on Friday night.
Nuggets forward Eduardo Najera was bragging in practice about how at age 30 he still could leap out of the gym. Allen Iverson called him on it. Najera may be able to get up in practice, but Iverson wanted to see it in live action. So Najera showed Iverson — and everyone else — his leaping prowess when he dunked over Orlando's Darko Milicic in the Denver Nuggets' 111-101 win over the Magic on Wednesday night.
Carmelo Anthony and Allen Iverson got their points and a win, too, thanks to Nene. Anthony, the league's leading scorer, had 33 points and Iverson added 25 to help the Denver Nuggets to a 111-107 victory over the Memphis Grizzlies on Monday night, snapping a four-game losing streak.
Dirk Nowitzki fell two assists short of his first triple-double and the Mavericks stretched their club-record home winning streak to 19 games with their second-highest point total of 2007. Still, the post-game topic in the Dallas locker room was defense.
George Karl, who recently backed away from his declaration that the Northwest Division race was over, refused to concede the crown to the Utah Jazz on Friday night. His team pretty much did so on the court.
The San Antonio Spurs were happy to finally play at home again. The Spurs returned home for the first time in more than three weeks on Tuesday night in a 95-80 win over Denver.
The centers in Minnesota Timberwolves lore have been notable only for the length of their names.
Desmond Mason didn't wait to celebrate his first NBA game-winner.
With Tracy McGrady drawing all the attention, Shane Battier all too willingly knocked down the open shots. Battier scored 25 points, including 12 in the fourth quarter, and the Houston Rockets held off the Denver Nuggets 90-86 on Friday night.
Allen Iverson got the new team he wanted, and the Denver Nuggets got the new superstar they suddenly needed. The four-time scoring champion was traded Tuesday by the Philadelphia 76ers to the Nuggets for Andre Miller, Joe Smith and two 2007 first-round picks. The Nuggets also get Ivan McFarlin.
David Stern won't stand for being embarrassed — by his players or his teams. So he came down hard on both Monday, suspending NBA scoring leader Carmelo Anthony 15 games and fining the Knicks and Nuggets an unprecedented $500,000 apiece after their brawl Saturday night.
Anthony Roberson scored 28 points and Baron Davis added 18 to lead the Golden State Warriors to a 121-115 victory over the Denver Nuggets in a preseason game Saturday night.
Police found marijuana in Carmelo Anthony's car during a traffic stop, but the Denver Nuggets star wasn't in the vehicle at the time, officers said Tuesday.
The Clippers were a happy bunch after putting an end to a 30-year drought.
Instead of tuning up, the division-champion Denver Nuggets were resting up.
For almost three quarters, the Denver Nuggets looked like they would lose a second-straight game to a sub.-500 division rival. Andre Miller's block of Ricky Davis with 15.9 seconds remaining in the third helped change that — starting a 7-0 run that would give the Nuggets the lead for good in their 106-94 win over the Minnesota Timberwolves Friday night.
