The Nuggets just pulled out a triple OT thriller against Phoenix 139-137. Carmelo had 43 points, including the game winner, and 11 boards. I'll have the recap and box score up when available. <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post"> DENVER (Ticker) -- Not even a kick to his face and a bloody nose could stop Carmelo Anthony from being the hero for the Denver Nuggets. Anthony scored 43 points, including a jumper with 2.9 seconds left, as the Nuggets pulled out a thrilling 139-137 triple-overtime victory over the Phoenix Suns. Shortly after giving Denver a 131-129 lead with 2:42 remaining, Anthony became tangled with Phoenix's Shawn Marion. On his way to the floor, the star forward was inadvertently kneed in the nose by teammate Eduardo Najera. </div> Recap: http://www.nba.com/games/20060110/PHXDEN/recap.html Box Score: http://www.nba.com/games/20060110/ORLLAC/livestats.html
Hey K8B I think you posted the wrong link for the box score, it took me to the box for the Magic-Clipper game. Didn't the Suns just play a triple OT game against the Knicks? I'm sure the refs are loving the overtime pay. I wish I could have seen this game.

Maybe just b/c I'm looking for them.
