DENVER - The Denver Nuggets were struggling and scuffling when they left for the road a week ago.
Jayson
Werth Jersey . Five games later they look like the team coach Brian Shaw
envisioned.Kenneth Faried and Arron Afflalo scored 19 points each, Wilson
Chandler had 18 and Denver beat the New Orleans Pelicans 117-97 on Friday
night.Danilo Gallinari had 17 points and JaVale McGee 14 for the Nuggets, who
have won four of their last five after starting the season 1-6. They took two of
three on the road last weekend and have won two straight at Pepsi Center to even
their home record at 3-3.We still have a long way to go, Shaw said. It took
longer than we would have liked but its nice to see it coming together.Anthony
Davis led the Pelicans with 18 points and nine rebounds. It was the first time
in eight games Davis has failed to eclipse 20 points.We just have to move on,
Davis said. Youre going to have games like this.Davis looked like he was going
to have a big night when he scored 10 points in the first quarter. The Pelicans
led by 14-2 in the first four minutes, but a timeout by Shaw and a threat to
bring in the bench got the starters motivated.We started playing a little
defence, got the lead back and control of the game, guard Ty Lawson said. We all
knew it was being lazy. Just gave the extra effort and it got better.Denver
rallied to tie it at 18-all midway through the first. The Nuggets used an 11-0
run that spanned the first and second quarters to take a 37-26 lead.They never
trailed again.The advantage grew to 50-34 on two free throws by Gallinari. Jrue
Holidays 3-pointer got New Orleans within nine late in the second but the
Nuggets led 59-49 at halftime.Gallinaris 17 points were a season high for the
forward, who is coming off two ACL surgeries on his left knee.If you dont play
basketball for 19 months, trust me, its not easy to come back, he said. You
think it is but it is not.The Pelicans got within eight in the third quarter but
Denver began to pull away behind Chandler. He scored six straight points,
including a 3-pointer with 8:46 left, to put the Nuggets ahead 98-77.We have an
identity, New Orleans coach Monty Williams said. When we stray away from that,
we get this result.McGee had three dunks and Nate Robinson hit another 3-pointer
to put Denver up 107-83 midway through the fourth.___GOOD LUCK SMOOCHMcGee gave
the crowd a laugh when he fell into the courtside seats trying to save a ball in
the second quarter. Before he got up he planted a kiss on a female fan.Thats my
Buddha, McGee said. I dont know her name but thats my Buddha.SCUFFED PAINTNew
Orleans came into Fridays game leading the NBA in points in the paint but was
outscored 52-32 in the lane.They got all the 50-50 balls, Davis said. They
turned them into a layup or a dunk or a three. Something good for them.TIP
INSPelicans: Center Omer Asik re-aggravated his back during warm-ups and was a
late scratch from the lineup. He has now missed three straight games with the
injury. ... New Orleans is averaging an NBA-low 10.9 turnovers a game. In
Tuesdays win over Sacramento, the Pelicans had a season-low six turnovers. They
had eight in the first 15 minutes against Denver and didnt have another for 12
minutes. They finished with 13, one off their season high.Nuggets: The Nuggets
entered Friday averaging just 13.8 turnovers a game. That would stand as the
best in franchise history for a full season. They had 10 against New Orleans.
... In Denvers four wins before Friday, Chandler was averaging 13.3 points and
6.5 rebounds a game. ... Lawson is fifth on the franchise list in assists. He
trails Michael Adams by 57 for fourth. ... Eight players played 20 or more
minutes for Denver.UP NEXTBulls: At Utah on Saturday night.Nuggets: At L.A.
Lakers on Sunday night.
Wilson
Ramos Nationals Jersey . The Pope greeted Klose at his general audience
Wednesday and the pair had a long chat. Klose is German like the pope, although
he was born in Poland. In Sundays derby, Lazio took the lead in the seventh
minute after Maarten Stekelenburg brought down Klose, resulting in the Roma
goalkeeper being sent off and a penalty that Hernanes converted.

Clippers vs.MONTREAL — Five things to watch as Canada continues its road to gold
in the world junior hockey championship on Saturday with a game against
Germany:Avoiding complacency — The Germans, ranked 13th in the world, are
Canadas weakest group-stage opposition. Last year, Canada opened its tournament
with a 7-2 victory over the Germans, who ultimately scored just seven goals in
their four round-robin games. The German national team has never finished higher
than fifth at a world junior tournament. As in any David-and-Goliath matchup,
Canada will need to stay focused and avoid complacency to ensure victory.Goal
fest — If Canada can remain level-headed, its fans can expect a slew of goals
from the red-and-white. The tournament-favourite Canadians are undefeated (12-0)
all-time against the Germans at the world juniors, outscoring them 67-18.Captain
Canada — Ottawa Senators rookie Curtis Lazar will look to use his 27 games of
NHL experience to lead Canada back to the gold-medal game. Lazar, one of seven
returning players from last years tournament in Malmo, Sweden, was named team
ccaptain earlier this week.
Chris
Heisey Nationals Jersey. A game against Germany could be exactly what the
19-year-old needs to spark linemates Connor McDavid and Nick Ritchie — a trio
that will need to get hot if Canada hopes to be successful against tougher
opposition down the road.North American experience — The German roster boasts a
few players who have played hockey in Canada and the United States. Perhaps the
most dangerous will be Dominik Kahun, who played two seasons with the Sudbury
Wolves of the Ontario Hockey League. The 19-year-old winger, competing in his
third world juniors, led Germany with seven points (three goals, four assists)
at last years tournament.Cortinas homecoming — Saturdays game will be very
special for German coach Pat Cortina, who was born in Montreal. After years
coaching the Italian and Hungarian mens national teams, Cortina is now in his
third year at the helm of the German organization — at both the senior and
junior levels. Cortina has the formidable task of leading Germanys under-20
squad to the podium for the first time in its history.
