The game was knotted at 86-86 with 5:14 remaining in the fourth quarter, but the Nuggets managed to take the lead for good at the 1:27 mark on free throws made by Yakhouba Diawara. Boston fought back with key baskets down the stretch, but could not overcome Denver's offense. After a first quarter, which was evenly played by both squads 35-35, Denver took a short-lived five-point lead at the half (55-50). The Celtics erased the deficit by notching a six-point edge in the third, but the Nuggets knocked down five more points down the stretch for the four-point victory. Casey Jacobsen and Kelenna Azubuike pitched in 21 points each in the winning effort. Jacobsen (6-12 FG, 7-7 FT) was perfect from the line hitting all seven free throws. Azubuike (5-11 FG, 11-20 FT) fell short of a double-double, as he collected eight rebounds. Four other Nuggets chipped in double-digit point outings with Diawara scoring 14, while Ricky Sanchez's 13 was followed by Cheyne Gadson's 11 and John Gilchrist's 10. Boston's Sebastian Telfair was the top scorer on the night with his 26-point (7-14 FG, 10-13 FT) outburst. Gerald Green trailed Telfair by two with his 24 points (8-16 FG). Ryan Gomes' 18, Al Jeffersons' 17 and Rajon Rando's 11 broke the double-figure mark, as well. For the game, Denver shot 55.2% (37-67 FG), while Boston hit 50.0% (36-72 FG) of its shots. Boston returns to action on Friday at 1 p.m., against the Detroit Pistons, while the Nuggets played their fifth and final game tonight. </div> Box: http://www.vegassummerleague.com/box_score.cfm?game=82
whoaa carefull Al. Getting a little too close to something that might resemble "dominating" the summer league. Better pull it back. Dont wanna go back on your promise. I really would love to Al just go ahead and throw up 35 points in one of these games just to get all the haters to shut up for a day

At the same time, it probably wouldn't get people who have no idea to shut the hell up. Woe is us.
It would be enough to ge them to shut up for a day. I know its a summer league game. If it were a regualr season theyd have to shut up for a week. But in a summer league its not too much to ask since u look silly talking about how a guy who just dropped 35 cant even ahve a good summer league game
