Carmelo Anthony is on his way to rewriting the Denver Nuggets' record book.

The star forward looks to break the team mark for consecutive 30-point games when the Nuggets (4-4) host the struggling Chicago Bulls (3-7) on Tuesday.

Anthony scored 34 points in Denver's 117-109 win over Toronto on Saturday, his sixth straight game of 30 or more points. He tied the Nuggets record set by Alex English during the 1982-83 season.

``Did I?'' Anthony said. ``He's a legend. I'm feeling good about my game right now.''

English, now an assistant coach with the Raptors, appreciates what Anthony is doing so far this season.

``I told Carmelo that I hope he breaks all my records,'' said English, who scored a team record 21,645 points for the Nuggets. ``He's that good of player.''

Anthony, leading the NBA with 31.0 points per game, was one of seven Denver players in double figures Saturday. He said he isn't ruling out the possibility of winning the scoring title this season.

``Anything can happen,'' Anthony said. ``I'm just playing.''

The Nuggets, 4-1 in their last five, have scored at least 100 points in all but two of their games. Denver, which recorded its highest point total of the season Saturday, ranks among the league leaders with 106.9 points per game.

The Nuggets, however, are among the worst defensive teams in the league, allowing 105.1 points per contest.

``There was a lot of good and a lot of bad,'' coach George Karl said Saturday.

Joe Smith had 11 rebounds and seven points off the bench, helping to make up for the absence of Kenyon Martin and Nene. Martin is out for the season following arthroscopic surgery on his right knee Wednesday, and Nene missed his fourth straight game with a right knee contusion.

The Bulls have dropped the first four games of their seven-game road trip, including Sunday's 82-72 loss to the Los Angeles Lakers and former coach Phil Jackson.

Andres Nocioni, who was averaging 10.7 points per game coming into the game, scored a career-high 30, but Luol Deng was the only other Bulls player in double figures with 13.

``He carried us offensively - especially early in the game,'' coach Scott Skiles said of Nocioni. ``When we have a guy that goes off scoring like that, it causes our other guys to spectate a little bit. We weren't able to really get anyone else to pitch in.''

The Bulls rank near the bottom of the league with 93.7 points per game. Jackson, who won six NBA titles with the Bulls before going to Los Angeles and winning three there, noted Chicago's scoring woes in his assessment of the team.

``Most people around the league would say there isn't another team that plays with the same intensity,'' said Jackson, who normally has his assistants watch tape of upcoming opponents, but decided to scout his former team himself. ``You know they're driven. They'll push you to the extreme and they'll wear you out because they work so hard.

``They're a hard-achieving team, and sometimes there's more froth than substance - sort of like a latte. There's not much there. I didn't mean that to be an insult, but they have trouble scoring.''

The Bulls beat the Nuggets 110-107 on Feb. 8 in the last meeting between the teams, ending their six-game losing streak in Denver.
