Raptors-Nuggets 93-132 I Bosh 24pts,12reb vs Billups 24pts,14ast
Description:
DENVER(AP) Forty-eight hours after he couldn't lift his arm or even his toddler son,
Carmelo Anthony didn't let the lingering pain in his right elbow keep him from scoring
baskets by the bunches or handing out high-fives by the boatload.
"You've still got to
cheer, man,'' Anthony said. "I'd rather take the pain and still cheer for my
teammates.''
He had plenty to celebrate in Denver's 132-93 rout of the Toronto Raptors on
Tuesday night.
After a slow start, Anthony finished with 23 points after scoring just one
bucket in 14 agonizing minutes against Houston on Sunday night, which snapped his NBA-best
double-digit streak at 222 games.
"It was still hurting out there tonight,'' Anthony
said. "I just wanted to try to fight through the pain.''
Chauncey Billups had 24 points,
14 assists and only one turnover for Denver (13-6), which tied the franchise mark for the
best 19-game start.
Jermaine O'Neal returned from a sprained left ankle that had cost him
three games and he scored 12 points to go with Chris Bosh's 24, but they couldn't keep the
Raptors from being routed.
Nene had another double-double for the Nuggets, who are 12-3
since trading Allen Iverson to the Detroit Pistons for Billups, the Denver native and
former University of Colorado star whose homecoming has gone better than anybody would
have expected.
"I think we're heading into a good direction right now,'' Anthony said. "I
say all the time, he's bringing that leadership to this team, helping everybody out,
making everybody better. You look at the scoreboard, you see five, six guys in double
digits, whereas before we really didn't have that.''
Thanks to Billups' play up and down
the court, this game was never in doubt even with Anthony's fitful start. During Billups'
32 minutes of playing time, the Nuggets were an incredible plus-48 on the scoreboard.
Denver posted 37 assists overall, outshot Toronto 60 percent to 37 percent and got 39
points from 3-point range.
"It's just one of those games where it seemed like everything
kind of worked,'' Billups said. "Throughout the season you usually get two or three of
those games. Unfortunately, you usually get two or three on the other side, those games
where nothing really works.
"The thing is you never know who that's going to be
against,'' Billups said. "When you've got things going against an opponent, it doesn't
matter who's on the other side.''
Anthony's right elbow has been bothering him since
training camp but has gotten progressively worse over the last couple of weeks. He
received treatment on the team's off-day and skipped much of the Nuggets' shootaround
Tuesday morning, then returned to the starting lineup.
He missed his first four shots and
two of his first four free throws before sinking a 17-foot jumper that gave Denver a 47-28
lead. After that, 'Melo was pretty much his usual self, driving to the basket for muscle
points and pulling up for sweet jump shots.
"It was really good to see him get back
going,'' Billups said, "because if we're going to be as good as we feel we can be he has
to get going for us, and he had a great game tonight.''
The Nuggets built a 64-45
halftime lead and the Raptors were done.
"It was a bad day,'' Calderon said. "Everything
was bad for us.''
And good for the Nuggets.
"You can point to any starter and they all
played well,'' Denver coach George Karl said. "They all had their moments. ... There was
no foolishness in the game even when we had the big lead.''
Conversely, O'Neal ripped his
team's poor play.
"We're going to address it as a team tomorrow. It's embarrassing not
only for us but for those who support the Toronto Raptors, the organization, the city and
the country,'' O'Neal said. "That should never happen. This is a business. We get paid a
heck of a lot of money to play a certain way and if we think we can turn it on and off
like that then we are fooling ourselves.''
That's the fire in the belly Raptors coach Sam
Mitchell wanted to see and hear.
"For me now it's not a time to be screaming and
yelling,'' Mitchell said. "It's a time to be trying to teach and reassure people. At a
certain point, when you play, you've got to almost want to fight each other after a game
like this. You've got to be demanding of each other.''
Notes: The 39-point difference
marked the fifth-worst loss in Raptors history and it ties the fifth biggest win the
Nuggets have ever had. ... The Nuggets' 37 assists are the most by an NBA team in
regulation this season.
