 CLEVELAND (AP) - The Denver Nuggets came out running and gunning. They hardly stopped, and they hardly missed. Carmelo Anthony scored 27 points, Nene had 21 and Allen Iverson 18 as the Nuggets had their best shooting night of the season, finishing off Cleveland with a late flurry in a 105-93 win over the Cavaliers on Sunday night.
Anthony, the league's second-leading scorer, bounced back from a season-low 10-point game in a loss on Friday at Toronto by shooting 12-of-19 from the field. He hit two jumpers and assisted on a basket by Nene as the Nuggets, who shot a season-best 60 percent, outscored Cleveland 8-0 over the final 3:02.
"We wanted to set the pace early, and we did," Anthony said.
