Owner Real Deal Posted November 14, 2012 Author Owner Report Share Posted November 14, 2012 PHOENIX -- For the first time in almost exactly two years the Phoenix Suns finally beat the Denver Nuggets. Goran Dragic scored 21 points, making 4 of 5 3-pointers along the way, to lead seven Phoenix players in double figures and the Suns snapped Denver's four-game winning streak 110-100 on Monday night. The Suns had lost six straight to Denver since they last beat the Nuggets on Nov. 15, 2010. "We've obviously struggled with that team over the past couple of years," Phoenix coach Alvin Gentry said, "so to be able to get a win against them and be able to get a home was important. We had a lot of guys that stepped up." Shannon Brown added 19 points, Michael Beasley 16 and Jared Dudley 15 for Phoenix. Markieff Morris added 13 points and had a crucial steal down the stretch. Marcin Gortat and Luis Scola added 12 points apiece for the Suns, who finished the game with a 13-4 run. Andre Iguodala scored 17 for Denver. JaVale McGee added 16, pretty much all of them on thundering dunks, and Danilo Gallinari scored 15 for the Nuggets. Kenneth Faried scored 14 on 6-of-7 shooting but didn't take a shot in the second half. Denver outshot Phoenix 54 percent to 46 percent but committed 15 turnovers, resulting in 17 points, while the Nuggets scored nine points off the Suns' six turnovers. Phoenix also prevailed at the foul line, going 17 of 21 to Denver's 11 of 18.http://www.cbssports.com/nba/gametracker/recap/NBA_20121112_DEN@PHO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
