You mean turnovers?15 turnovers, that's gotta be a record, or very close to, at least.
January 25, United Center
Denver Nuggets (16-13) @ Chicago Bulls (26-4)
Melo's 34 lift Nuggets over Bulls for the second time(SIMMED)
The Chicago Bulls were unable of keeping that 6-game winning streak in Tuesday's game against the Nuggets. On a game where Bulls great weapons went silent,with Rose scoring 13 points and Boozer leading the way with 15, Chicago eventually lost this one by a great margin. Anthony's 34 points and 12 rebounds were more than enough for the Nuggets,who are still in a good playoff spot,and still over the .500 mark

Bulls playing very well this season
While Derrick Rose's game won't make stat-heads drool, it does exhibit MVP qualities.
The Race is back after the end of January and with some great shake ups on the Race to The MVP standings.While Rose remains first,there are several new entries on the top 5.Let's get it started and show you who are the Top 5 candidates for the MVP award after the end of month January:
1.Derrick Rose - Chicago Bulls(26-5)(Last Month:1)
Stats:PPG:25.7-APG-9.5-RPG:2.5-SPG:2.3-BPG:0.6-FG%:55%-3P%:28%-FT%:78%
Comment:Derrick Rose keeps up the amazing performances and deservedly remains first on the R2MVP.Derrick Rose had put some of his best performances of his career so far.A career high 60-point game over the Knicks in MSG, and a 39-point-double double game,being 1 steal away from a triple double,both are solid MVP performances and show why Rose is the leader in the MVP standings.
2.Rajon Rondo - Boston Celtics(25-11)(Last Month:2)
Stats:PPG:13.5-APG-9.9-RPG:5.2-SPG:2.6-BPG:0.0-FG%:52%-3P%:20%-FT%:61%
Comment:Well Rajon is not a flashy player,who is going to rack up the scoreboards,but clearly is the most valuable player of his Boston Celtics team.He delivers well in the clutch moments,and he had several double-double and triple double performances to help the Boston Celtics stay in the 2nd spot in the east.Rondo is clearly becoming the future C's leader and Paul Pierce admitted it himself in a public statement a week ago.
3.LeBron James - Miami Heat(21-10)(Last Month:8)
Stats:PPG:24.9-APG-6.1-RPG:6.5-SPG:2.4-BPG:1.0-FG%:46%-3P%:28%-FT%:80%
Comment:LeBron James.The King is back as the Heat have made a strong push to get close to Boston for the 2nd seed in the East. LeBron's number may have gone down,but his value is well known and he manages to deliver great in late situations as well. LeBron has taken the first role from Wade,and is now the Heat's leader to the road for a deep post-season.
4.Kobe Bryant - Los Angeles Lakers(22-10)(Last Month:7)
Stats:PPG:31.1-APG-4.2-RPG:3.6-SPG:1.9-BPG:0.5-FG%:50%-3P%:35%-FT%:85%
Comment:Despite the raising competition,the Black Mamba remains strong on the standings for the MVP award.Kobe is posting a 4-year high on points and a career high on FG% so far,is second on the scoring averages list behind Kevin Durant and he is again the only player in the Lakers' squad who can handle in late-game situations.
5.Tim Duncan - San Antonio Spurs(19-14)(Last Month:NR)
Stats:PPG:22.5-APG-1.3-RPG:13.3-SPG:0.6-BPG:1.7-FG%:53%-3P%:00%-FT%:75%
Comment:What a season for Tim Duncan,clearly a candidate few expected. Mr Fundamentals is posting a career high on rebounds,a career low on turnovers and a point per game average higher than every season after the 2002-2003 season!Cleary Duncan is going through a second period of playing youth,being the leader of the Spurs and hoping for another ring now that his career is near its end.
