Not a good day or night for Phil Jackson thanks to the NBA and Linas Kleiza.
Jackson got fined $50,000 for accusing the league of having a vendetta against Kobe Bryant, then lost a seventh straight game for the first time in his 16-year coaching career Thursday night when the Los Angeles Lakers fell to the Denver Nuggets 113-86.
Kleiza scored a career-high 29 points and Carmelo Anthony had 26 as the Nuggets handed the Lakers their 13th loss in 16 games.
"That's great when you've got a guy coming off the bench contributing the way he has," Allen Iverson said of Kleiza, who scored 24 against Sacramento on Sunday. "He never cares about starting or anything like that. When his opportunity comes, he's just always ready."
Kleiza shrugged off his career night:
"It was just one of those games where the shots were going down. Melo and Iverson were doing a great job sharing the ball," he said.
Kleiza was doing a great job putting it through the hoops, hitting 10-of-13 shots, including 5-of-6 from the arc.
Iverson couldn't have picked Kleiza out of a crowd when he came over from Philadelphia three months ago but said the second-year forward was the catalyst for the Nuggets' biggest win since the trade.
"I didn't know who he was when I got here, but a nationally televised game, I think a lot of people around the world know who he is now," Iverson said.
Iverson added 14 points and 13 assists and Marcus Camby had 11 points and 14 boards for the Nuggets, who moved into a tie with the Lakers for the sixth spot in the Western Conference playoff race.
Bryant's 25 points led the free-falling Lakers, who couldn't capitalize on the return of Luke Walton and Lamar Odom despite building a double-digit lead in a mostly stellar first half.
Anthony scored 10 points in a 24-10 run that Denver used to close the third quarter and take an 87-72 lead and turn the game into a blowout. Even the Nuggets, who have lost 10 games in which they led after three quarters, couldn't blow that big of a lead.
Camby's alley-oop dunk made it 92-72 and the Nuggets enjoyed a rare blowout at the Pepsi Center, where they are just 18-17.
Earlier in the day, Jackson and the Lakers were fined $50,000 apiece by the NBA after the coach said the league was conducting a "witch hunt" against Bryant.
"I thought you only get fined for criticizing the officiating," Jackson said before tip-off. "They're the sacred cows. But I find out somebody else has a sacred cow somewhere else."
Bryant recently received two one-game suspensions this season for striking players in the face after taking a shot. The league retroactively assessed Bryant with a flagrant foul for an elbow to Philadelphia's Kyle Korver last week, a play that didn't even draw a foul.
Bryant picked up three fouls in a 90-second span in the third quarter Thursday night while the Nuggets, who closed the first half on a 13-2 run, were pulling away.
"The third quarter it just caved in on us," Bryant said.
With Brian Cook (ankle) not making the trip, both Walton and Odom returned to the Lakers' lineup. Odom hadn't played since tearing the labrum in his left shoulder March 2 and Walton had been sidelined since spraining his right ankle Jan. 26.
They started along with Kwame Brown, who missed 27 games with a sprained ankle before returning March 2. He replaced 19-year-old Andrew Bynum at center. Walton had 13 points and Odom scored nine.
"Luke Walton ran out of gas and Lamar Odom is just not ready to play," Jackson said.
A winded Odom went scoreless after halftime.
"He didn't have a good second half," Jackson said. "He did a good job on Carmelo. He hit a couple of shots then and Kobe wanted to switch onto him."
Said Odom: "I didn't have much tonight. The game took a lot out of me. I had some problems with Carmelo. It made sense to make the switch."
Despite it all, Bryant saw glimpses of a looming recovery.
"With Lamar back, we saw flashes of what we're capable of in the first half," he said. "We just have to build on that and understand that that's the team we want to make noise with in the playoffs. We have to build with what we have here and Luke and Lamar need to get in basketball shape.
"When that happens we'll feel pretty good."
Jackson will feel a lot better, too.
Eddie House said Thursday that he hadn't gone headhunting for Allen Iverson on Wednesday night and seemed to resent the implication by the Philadelphia 76er star that he had.
"I ain't no dirty player," he said. "I don't play dirty."
House, in his first start at guard for the Clippers, provoked a reaction from Iverson that longtime observers said they had rarely, if ever, seen.
Iverson became enraged after absorbing a blow to the head from House while driving to the basket in the second quarter of a 100-80 76er victory. The NBA scoring leader took off after the Clipper guard, only to be restrained by teammate John Salmons, who wrapped Iverson in his arms.
Later, the 76er guard thanked Salmons for interceding because "only God knows" what might have happened if he'd reached House, who was called for a flagrant foul after the officials changed their initial ruling of a two-shot foul.
Iverson, who scored 20 points, said House had hit him in the face in the first quarter, "and I didn't pay it no mind."
"But I knew he was still coming, and I had the easy layup, and then he hit me in the head. I really don't care when guys hit me in my arms, my chest, my leg, anything like that real hard. But when you hit me in my face or my head, it's a different story. It was a hard foul.
"Afterward, he kept saying, 'It was just a hard foul, it was just a hard foul.' Well, it was a flagrant foul, so obviously it wasn't just a hard foul. I just didn't like it. And I wanted to let him know I didn't like it."
House got the message but didn't understand the commotion.
"I was playing basketball," he said Thursday. "I don't care how he took it. It wasn't like I was going after him, trying to do it....
"If he took it like that, that's how he took it. I can't help that. I can't dictate how somebody else is going to take something, you know what I mean?"
He didn't seem threatened.
"That just fed into his ego," he said of Iverson's postgame comments. "I guess he had to say something, like he was really going to do something."
Ray Allen was so unstoppable in the early going that Allen Iverson's astonishing finish wasn't enough.
Allen tied an NBA playoff record with nine 3-pointers and had his own 17-0 run as the Milwaukee Bucks held off an Iverson-led rally for a 110-100 win over the Philadelphia 76ers to force a seventh game in the Eastern Conference finals.
Game 7 will be Sunday in Philadelphia, with the winner moving on to play the Los Angeles Lakers in the NBA Finals.
"It was scary being able to score like that knowing I hadn't been shooting the ball real well," said Allen, who finished with a career playoff-high 41 points. "I was asking myself, 'Where has this been for the past couple of games?'"
The Bucks let a 33-point lead dip to 10 in the fourth quarter as Iverson was phenomenal, scoring 26 of his 46 points. He finished three points shy of the NBA record for most points in a quarter, set by Sleepy Floyd of Golden State in 1987.
Allen's final two 3-pointers were the biggest of the game, coming after Philadelphia had pulled within 10 with 5:14 remaining.
"When [Iverson] went on that run, it seemed like he was unstoppable," Allen said. "He almost pulled it off."
Allen's performance came one day after he alleged that the NBA would rather see a 76ers-Lakers Finals than a Bucks-Lakers Finals. He spent a long time before the game sitting at his locker defending his words, then went out and made the biggest statement of the series.
Hitting four consecutive 3-point shots, Allen scored 19 consecutive Milwaukee points over the final 5 1/2 minutes of the first quarter and the first 1 1/2 minutes of the second. When he was finished, the Bucks had turned a 14-11 lead into a 33-15 edge.
Allen had 25 points at halftime, 31 before the second half was two minutes old. His nine 3-pointers tied the NBA record set by Rex Chapman of Phoenix in 1997 and matched by Vince Carter of Toronto against the 76ers on May 11.
In the highest scoring game of the series, the Bucks improved to 3-0 this postseason when facing elimination.
"We just had to keep our composure. We've been known to blow leads," Allen said.
After being forced to play Philadelphia's slowdown style during the previous three games, the Bucks turned this one into an uptempo game as soon as they could.
Iverson made his first two shots -- both 3-pointers -- but was hit with a technical foul by referee Joey Crawford midway through the first quarter. That turned out to be the moment when the momentum shifted squarely in Milwaukee's favor.
Allen hit the technical free throw for a 17-15 lead, then closed the quarter with a pair of 3s. Allen started the second quarter with another 3-pointer, then came up with a steal, two foul shots and a 3-pointer in transition that made it 33-15.
"Every night we try to play the way we want to play," Bucks coach George Karl said. "Making shots and playing with a lead makes them play uptempo. It's pretty simple stuff."
Glenn Robinson scored his first points of the game on a corner jumper that gave the Bucks a 40-17 lead, and Allen added two more 3-pointers over the final 2:04 of the second quarter to give Milwaukee a 60-31 halftime advantage.
Allen began the third quarter with yet another 3-pointer, then converted a fast-break layup on which he was fouled by Aaron McKie. He pumped his fists as he lay on the ground, then got up and completed the three-point play.
He later fed Robinson for a 3-pointer after Sam Cassell grabbed an offensive rebound, making it 75-46.
Iverson went to the bench with 2:37 left in the third quarter and the 76ers trailing by 28, then came out and had a four-point play, a three-point play, a 3-pointer and two foul shots early in the fourth quarter as the Sixers pulled to 84-73 with eight minutes left.
Allen hit his eighth 3-pointer with 6:21 left for an 89-75 lead and his ninth with 4:54 left to make it 92-79. Iverson reached 24 points for the quarter by converting a three-point play with 4:37 left, but Milwaukee scored the next four points to end the threat.
"We're experts at blowing leads. That's our forte," Karl said. "We usually let it get to five; tonight we stayed at 10."
Robinson had 22 for the Bucks and Scott Williams played his best game of the series in scoring 12 points -- including 10 of Milwaukee's first 14.
Williams also delivered a hard foul on Iverson just over two minutes into the game, elbowing Iverson hard in the shoulder as he drove the lane. Williams was called for a flagrant foul, and Iverson rubbed his shoulder before going to the foul line and missing his first attempt -- much to the delight of the sellout crowd of 18,717.
Iverson hit 3-pointers on his next two touches, but the technical foul seemed to take him out of his rhythm just as Allen was starting to get a groove.
"If we play like we're capable of playing and not let the referees have a hand in the outcome of the game, then we'll have nothing to worry about," Allen had said Thursday.
Turns out Allen was right, although Iverson did all he could to make the Bucks sweat.
"I bet they know now that if they get us down by 30 Sunday we're not going to give up," Iverson said.
