The Nuggets are angry over the treatment they received in Dallas during their Game 4 loss to the Mavericks, and are thrilled to be home.

"I think all of us are kind of angry about ... the treatment we got in Dallas," coach George Karl said Tuesday. "And we want our home crowd to be with us and ... we want to show them that we owe them a game."

On Tuesday, Mavericks owner Mark Cuban apologized and suggested that things had gotten out of hand. However, his apology was brushed aside by Denver because it contained an offer that they could all sit in his suite with his own family "when the series comes back to Dallas."

"We don't plan on going back to Dallas," Chauncey Billups fired back.
