The 2006–07 Denver Nuggets season was the 40th season of the franchise, 31st in the National Basketball Association (NBA). The season is best remembered when Carmelo Anthony made headlines on December 15 when he was involved in a brawl against the Knicks, allowing the league to suspend him for the next 15 games. Four days after, the Nuggets made a bold move, acquiring Allen Iverson from Philadelphia. Anthony and newly acquired Iverson played their first game together on January 22, 2007 in a game against Memphis. The Nuggets finished the year at 45-37, making the postseason for the fourth straight year. However, they did not make it out of the first round, losing to the eventual champion San Antonio Spurs in five games. Anthony and Iverson were voted to play in the 2007 NBA All-Star Game. However, Iverson did not play due to an injury. This was Anthony's first All-Star game appearance and the first time since Antonio McDyess in 2001 where a Nugget was voted to an All-Star game.
