Quarter-Finals Round 1: Dallas M. - Denver N. 95-109

Date: May 3, 2009
Hilario Nene kept the Denver Nuggets in it until his teammates could turn this one into another runaway. Nene scored 18 of his career playoff-high 24 points in the first half and the Nuggets raced past the Dallas Mavericks 109-95 yesterday in the first day game in the Pepsi Center's 10-year history. Carmelo Anthony scored 23 points, including a dunk off J.R. Smith's behind-the-back assist that rocked the arena in the closing minutes. Smith added 15 points, leading a bench that outscored Dallas' celebrated reserves 38-24 before both teams emptied their benches in the meaningless final minutes. Dirk Nowitzki led Dallas with 28 points and 10 rebounds, and Josh Howard, Jason Kidd and Jason Terry each scored 15. Game 2 is scheduled Tuesday night at the Pepsi Center, where the Nuggets have won 14 straight, including four in the playoffs. All four have been blowouts.
