Suns: Phoenix has defeated Denver in four consecutive games. The streak is the Nuggets' longest against any NBA opponent. . . .In its win against Denver this season, Hakim Warrick scored 21 points off the bench in 26 minutes. Since that victory, the Suns have lost four of six. . . . Said Karl of the Suns: "I think their personality is they like to play fast — they play best fast."

Nuggets: Point guard Chauncey Billups will be a game-time decision, because of his right wrist injury. . . . Karl is just five wins from 1,000. He is the seventh-winningest coach in NBA history. . . . In Friday's victory against Chicago, Shelden Williams led all Denver players in plus-minus with plus-17. . . . In the loss at Phoenix, Carmelo Anthony had 20 points with 22 rebounds, the latter a career high.

Melo took himself out of the game, he is still sick with the flu.

Game has a really good feel to it overall but gotta figure out those lapses.

Suns got a hot offense....that's a fact. That's why so much effort has to be toward stymying that offense.

Typical Nuggets make an easy game difficult. No Melo, no problem :lol:

Billups did alright tonight, he has finally started knocking down his shots.

The team has consistently played well the first game or so if Melo needs to sit out - all the way back to 2006. After a while it needs his firepower to continue on.

He had a pretty productive few minutes though so I don't think it was really a game without Melo.
