Butler's 35 points not enough as Bulls fall to Nuggets, 110-107

DENVER _ The Chicago Bulls weren't able to break their curse at the Pepsi Center as Jamal Murray scored 24 to help the Denver Nuggets prevail, 110-107, on Tuesday night. The Nuggets roared back from a 31-19 deficit after one quarter _ mostly against the Bulls' bench players _ and topped the Bulls for the 10th consecutive time in Denver. The Bulls have now lost 16 of the last 17 meetings between the teams at the Pepsi Center.

Jimmy Butler led the way with 35 while Dwyane Wade added 22 but it wasn't enough as the Bulls dropped to 3-2 on their six-game road trip that will conclude Friday night in Philadelphia.
