Quarter-Finals Round 5: Dallas M. - Denver N. 110-124

Date: May 13, 2009
The Denver Nuggets are leaving all the animosity with the Dallas Mavericks players, fans and owner behind and are heading to their first Western Conference finals since 1985. Behind 30 points from Carmelo Anthony and 28 from Chauncey Billups, the Nuggets beat the Mavericks 124-110 on Wednesday night to wrap up their semifinal series in five feisty games. The Nuggets, who are 8-2 in the playoffs after tying their franchise record with a 54-win regular season, will face either Los Angeles or Houston for the conference championship. ‘It’s special. We worked hard in the offseason and training camp and throughout’, Anthony said. ‘We stuck to everything, we overcame adversity, we stayed humble and our hard work paid off.’ Winners of 16 straight games at the Pepsi Center, where no opponent has won since March 9, the Nuggets would start their next series on the road if the Lakers win, and at home if Houston does. The Lakers lead the series 3-2 with Game 6 Thursday night in Houston.
