Nene posted a career-high tying 27 points and nine rebounds in the win over Memphis for the Nuggets, who improved to 13-13 on the road. Marcus Camby added eight points and 13 boards for Denver. The Nuggets are 14-15 at home this season. They are scheduled to host the Houston Rockets on Friday and the Hornets on March 6th. Iverson, who was acquired in a blockbuster trade from the Philadelphia 76ers on December 19th, has scored more than 20 points in three straight contests and is averaging 28.0 points and 6.0 assists during that span. The Georgetown product has posted 26.2 points and 7.5 assists in 24 games in a Denver uniform. Since the acquisition of Iverson, the Nuggets have recorded a 13-19 record.
