After last night?s 111-98 victory at Portland, the Denver Nuggets now find themselves in the midst of a 7-game winning streak.  

"I don't want to get too happy right now," said coach George Karl, who was toiling for Real Madrid when Denver last accomplished such a streak in late 1989. "Living in the hell that they were living in for two or three months of an NBA season, losing, maybe they deserve a little celebration. But we've got a lot of work to do."
