The Denver Nuggets once scored 184 points in a game... and lost. On December 13, 1983, the Nuggets and the Detroit Pistons played a triple overtime game, with the Pistons winning 186-184. The teams' scores rank first and second all-time for most points by a team in one game. Four players topped 40 points, also a record. For Detroit, Isiah Thomas had 47 points, and John Long had 41. Kiki Vandeweghe scored 51 points, and Alex English finished with 47 for Denver.

Summary: Denver and Pistons. 186(Pistons-184(Denver)
