The Denver Nuggets last swept a road trip of at least four games five seasons ago. The Nuggets can accomplish that feat again and extend their win streak to seven Monday night as they go for their first season sweep of the Houston Rockets in 32 years. Denver owns the longest current win streak in the Western Conference and is one-half game ahead of Dallas in the race for the No. 2 seed. The Nuggets are three games behind the Los Angeles Lakers. With Adrian Dantley filling in as coach while George Karl undergoes cancer treatments, Denver has trailed at halftime in every game of this trip. The Nuggets’ latest rally featured one of their best fourth quarters of the season.

Denver was down six at the half and tied after three periods Saturday, but scored 40 points in the fourth and won 125-108 at Memphis. Reserve J.R. Smith had 16 of his 30 in the final period, which the Nuggets opened on a 12-0 run. Four other reserves combined for 27 points, and backup point guard Anthony Carter added seven assists in less than 17 minutes. The Nuggets last swept a four-game trip April 2-8, 2005. Smith averaged 21.5 points as Denver won the first two matchups of the season with the Rockets, whom the Nuggets have not swept since going 3-0 in 1977-78. Carmelo Anthony missed Denver’s last two visits to Houston, where he has had his share of problems. His 19.2 scoring average at Toyota Center is his worst in any arena and his 38.8 field-goal percentage is his second worst.
