Notes: Najera was in need of some fluids after experiencing flu-like symptoms Friday night against Minnesota. He said he expected to play tonight . . . Anthony had a monster November, but Western Conference player of the month honors went to Houston Rockets center Yao Ming, who averaged 25.7 points and 10.1 rebounds. "I don't understand that voting," Karl said. "Houston probably had a little better month than we did, and Yao had a great month." . . . Indiana is in the midst of a six-game, nine-day trip and will play its fourth game in five days . . . The Nuggets have won four in a row against the Pacers after going 4-17 in the previous 21 meetings . . . Both teams played on the road Friday night.

He stuck primarily to a seven-man rotation in a 14-point victory against Minnesota. ? Denver has enjoyed a double-figure lead at some point in 13 of its first 14 games.
