Few plays are prettier. Yes, the Nuggets are known for their soaring alley-oops. And one conjures the image of Danilo Gallinari's touch on a floated 3-pointer, splashing into the net. But watch Corey Brewer run the floor in transition. His flow is a thing of beauty. His acceleration is the best in the business. And in Denver's comeback win Friday against Memphis, "Some things broke our way early in the fourth and it became a heck of a basketball game," coach George Karl said. "Corey got a couple hustle points." Brewer tallied a game-high seven fourth-quarter points against the Grizzlies, considered the biggest win of Denver's season. The Nuggets are winners of 11 consecutive games heading into Monday's matchup at Chicago. Against the Grizzlies, Brewer led the Denver bench with 11 points, marking the 28th time he did so this season and the third time in the past four games.
