Dwyane Wade had 22 points after sitting out Sundays game against the Lakers.Butler insisted the streak wasnt weighing on the teams mind.Its a basketball court with two rims, two backboards and a ball, he said. At the end of the day put the ball in the basket, do everything you can do in every other city and win the game.Chicago had a chance to end the streak but with the game tied Barton was fouled by Wade on a drive to the basket, and he hit two free throws left to give Denver a 109-107 lead.We are going to put the ball in Will Bartons hands, let him attack downhill, Nuggets coach Michael Malone said. If he draws a crowd, let him get the ball to Murray, who had been shooting the ball lights out, on the back side to make a shot.The Bulls called timeout and Fred Hoiberg drew up a play for Butler, but Denver shut it down.Kenneth Faried was standing in the paint so I didnt have nowhere to go, Butler said.Wade got the ball to Isaiah Cannon, coming around the defense but shot an airball on a 3-point attempt and the Nuggets got the ball.We got a shot from a very good 3-point shooter. Were fine with it, Wade said. We had a chance to come in and get one and we didnt.The Bulls were in control early but the Nuggets used a 22-0 run at the start of the second quarter to take a 41-31 lead. Murray had 15 of his 17 first half points in the period and Wilson Chandler scored 12 of his 16 in the second quarter.It just takes one shot to have confidence, Murray said. It doesnt take me long to get hot. I think every shot is going in.

GAINESVILLE, Fla. -- Florida defensive end Jordan Sherit doesnt want to forget what happened down the stretch last year.The third-year sophomore plans to use the painful memory of last seasons collapse -- the Gators dropped their final three games in lopsided fashion -- as motivation this time around.The fact that we do have that is going to help us go forward, Sherit said.The 10th-ranked Gators (6-1, 4-1 Southeastern Conference) might need it. Florida has the toughest part of its schedule ahead, a daunting November slate that begins Saturday at Arkansas (5-3, 1-3) and includes road games against No. 15 LSU and No. 19 Florida State. Throw in Senior Day against rapidly improving South Carolina and Florida could be set up for another fall slide.The Gators insist it wont happen.We definitely have a stretch coming up, defensive end Bryan Cox Jr. said. But I feel like the leadership on this team is a little bit different then it was last year. I just feel like the cohesiveness between everybody is just ... were all in a good place right now.Florida was in a good position last November, too.The season started to unravel against Vanderbilt, though. The Gators needed a shanked punt and a late field goal to eke out a 9-7 victory. Two weeks later, they had to go to overtime to stave off Florida Atlantic. The struggles were just beginning, too.Florida scored just two offensive touchdowns in losses to Florida State, Alabama and Michigan. Yes, those were some of the better teams in the country; the Tide won the national championship. But Florida was outscored 97-24 in those games and hardly looked interested in playing the Wolverines in the Citrus Bowl.Thats something that we keep in the back of our minds, center Cam Dillard said. You want to startt the season strong and finish strong.dddddddddddd Thats what we preach all offseason, finishing. Thats what were going to try to do throughout the remainder of the season, finish.Beating the Razorbacks certainly would be a good start.Florida is 9-0 against Arkansas since the former Southwest Conference member entered the SEC in 1992 and has won all three meetings in Fayetteville.The Gators also have won three straight since a second-half debacle at Tennessee, but showed as many offensive flaws as defensive strengths while beating Vanderbilt, Missouri and Georgia. McElwain has come to his players defense this week, quite possibly trying to convince them theyre talent matches their lofty ranking.Theres something about having confidence in yourself, Sherit said. Something Coach Mac talks about a lot is were a good team and some guys dont realize how good we are, how good we can be.The Gators can clinch the Eastern Division and a berth in the SEC title game by winning two of their remaining three league games. That should provide plenty of motivation down the stretch. Not enduring a repeat of last season -- or what happened against Tennessee six weeks ago -- also should be a huge incentive.Every Saturday is a brand new event, McElwain said. I like where our guys are at as far as taking care of business. I think that second half of that one ball game down in Knoxville, Im telling you, it was an eye-opener for guys. And to make you realize that youve got to play with energy every single snap and you cant let the past affect the future.
