Takin Care O' Business

The Nuggs handled their business Wednesday night, taking care of a simply terrible Seattle Supersonics squad that has failed to win 20 games this season.

Denver’s 138 points is an NBA high for this season, and an all time franchise high. This is just what the Nuggets needed after losing three straight to teams that, quite frankly, should have been beaten easily.

Holding Seattle to under 100 points is one of the few times all season that the Nuggs haven’t allowed over 100, opponents usually score 105 points on average.

Iverson was simply on fire, leading all scorers with 31. Melo was, well, a little more mellow, scoring only 16, the first time in 11 games he hasn’t reached at least 20.

Looking ahead, the Nuggs (34-23) take on:

LA Clippers(19-36) on Friday
The broken Rockets (37-20) on Sunday
The red hot Suns (39-19) on Wednesday
