DENVER (AP) - Carmelo Anthony gave the home crowd nothing to boo about Sunday night, scoring 36 points in the Denver Nuggets' 121-107 victory over the Indiana Pacers, who lost their fifth straight.

Anthony had been subjected to jeers by the home crowd as trade talk intensified last week, but on this night, the Denver fans showed him plenty of love, especially when he was raining 3s from
all over the court as he put on a spectacular 23-point show in the third quarter.

Anthony's career-best six 3-pointers all came in the third period as the Nuggets turned a close game into a laugher - a reversal of their game in November when the Pacers made their first
20 shots of the third quarter and rolled to a 144-113 win in Indianapolis.
