76ers top Nuggets 110-99 -- The AP reports: ‘Melo is moving on to New Jersey. Unfortunately for jilted Nets fans, Carmelo Anthony will still bring his Denver Nuggets teammates with him to New Jersey on Monday for the first time since Nets owner Mikhail Prokhorov ended the drawn-out trade talks with Denver. Anthony isn’t sure what to expect at the game—but he’s certain of one thing. He’ll have to produce more than 12 points like he did in Denver’s 110-99 loss to the Philadelphia 76ers on Sunday night... Andre Iguodala scored 24 points, Thaddeus Young had 21 and Elton Brand 15. The Sixers had six players in double figures and swept the season series against the Nuggets for the first time since 2002-03... Chauncey Billups led the Nuggets with 27 points. He was part of the proposed deal and, while he wants to remain in Denver, credited the Nets for trying to build an instant winner.
