'Melo, Nuggets Thrash Flailing Bulls 112-91

Posted Nov 21, 07 4:19 AM CST in Sports

(Newser) – Carmelo Anthony had 26 points, Allen Iverson had 22, and Marcus Camby grabbed 20 rebounds for Denver in last night's 112-91 domination of Chicago, reports the Tribune. For the Bulls, who have "a lot of things to address," the high scorer was Joakim Noah, the rookie whose 16 points were his first as a pro. In other NBA action:

Dallas dug its way out of a 24-point hole to beat Toronto, 105-99, on Dirk Nowitzki's 32 points and seven rebounds, and Jason Terry's 19 points and five assists.
Phoenix nearly blew a 19-point lead, but a banner night from Amare Stoudemire kept the Suns above water for a 100-98 win in Sacramento.
