ROTATION: Starters -- Point guard Anthony Carter, Shooting guard Allen Iverson, Small forward Carmelo Anthony, Power forward Kenyon Martin, Center Marcus Camby. Bench -- Forward Eduardo Najera, Forward Linas Kleiza, Guard J.R. Smith, Guard Chucky Atkins, Forward Nene.
PLAYER NOTES: --Nuggets forward Carmelo Anthony, 23, scored his 9,000th career NBA point Thursday against Dallas. He's the second youngest player to do so after LeBron James.
--Nuggets guard Allen Iverson shot 3-of-3 from three-point range Thursday against Dallas. It's the most three-pointers he's made in a game without a miss this season.
--Nuggets center Marcus Camby may be second in the NBA in rebounding with a 13.4 average, but his rebounding lately has been the most erratic it's been all season. Over the past 14 games, Camby has had 10 or less rebounds eight times, including outings of four and six boards in his last five games.
--Nuggets guard Chucky Atkins has seen his time cut as coach George Karl has tightened his rotation. Over the past five games, Atkins once did not play due to a coach's decision and his four other outings have been seven minutes or less.
