DENVER -- Even if George Karl wanted to yell, he couldn't.
His Denver Nuggets trailed the woeful Washington Wizards by as many as eight points in the first half Tuesday night at the Pepsi Center and were down 45-39 at the half. But the coach couldn't raise his voice due to a very sore throat from the treatment he is undergoing for a form of throat cancer.
"Especially a game like this,'' Nuggets forward Carmelo Anthony said of it being tough for Karl to restrain himself. "But he understands his situation.''
Fortunately for Karl, the Nuggets gave him a second half in which he didn't need to say a peep. They outscored the Wizards by 16 and won 97-87.
