NEW YORK -- Canadian midfielder Dwayne De Rosario of D. .C. United was named the MLS player of the week on Monday. The reigning league MVP scored on Wednesday in a 2-0 victory over Colorado and added another two goals on Saturday against Toronto FC. The 34-year-old from Toronto needs just two more goals to become the seventh player in MLS history with 100 career regular-season goals. Its De Rosarios 10th player of the week award, second most of any player in league history. He trails only Jeff Cunningham, who has 14.

AUBURN HILLS, Mich. -- The Denver Nuggets have watched this scenario play out a few times already this season -- just from the opposite viewpoint. Ty Lawson had 26 points, seven assists and five rebounds to lead Denver to a 101-94 win over the Detroit Pistons on Tuesday night. Corey Brewer added 15 points and Andre Iguodala had 12 points and eight rebounds for the Nuggets, who rallied from a slow start in which they trailed by as many as 17 in the first quarter. JaVale McGee also had 12 points for Denver. "Weve had about four or five close games and didnt win," Lawson said. "Weve lost a bunch of times when teams came back on us when we were up 17 or 18 points." This time, the Nuggets trailed 21-4 a little more than five minutes into the game. "They were the better team the first 7-8 minutes and we couldnt make a shot," Denver coach George Karl said. So he brought McGee, Brewer and veteran Andre Miller off the bench. "Our starters, they werent trying to get good shots. They were kind of going through the motions," Karl added. The reserves helped Denver pick up the pace and the Pistons couldnt keep up. "The bench came in and gave us a big lift," Lawson said. "JaVale was dunking, Corey was stealing the ball and getting easy layups and Andre was running the show." The Nuggets led 48-42 at the half after outscoring the Pistons 31-17 in the second quarter -- including 20-6 in the final seven minutes of the first half. "It can be very frustrating. But I thought we came out and played very well, but youve got to play all four quarters and youve got to give Denver credit," Detroit rookie guard Kyle Singler said. "They played well, kept with it. They fought. It was a good game. We just came up short at the end. [url=http://www.ramsofficialteamstore.com/autographed-jared-cook-jersey-zb-53.ht... Cook Jersey. " Brandon Knight had 20 points and five assists for the Pistons. Jason Maxiell added 18 points, six blocks and six rebounds, and Rodney Stuckey scored 17 points. "We got off to a great start. Youre not going to win a game 150-14," Detroit coach Lawrence Frank said. "I think the key is, when they made their run, even the last four minutes of the first quarter, the key is this: a teams going to make a run. Its the mistakes we made and how they got them. With that, the mistakes, they multiplied, they came in succession so they become a little bit deflating." The Nuggets maintained a six- to nine-point lead for most of the second half. After Stuckey pulled the Pistons within two on a layup with 7:27 remaining, Millers three-point play with 7:11 left and Brewers 3-pointer with 6:45 to go put the Nuggets up 82-74. Danilo Gallinari hit a 3-pointer with 1:48 left to give the Nuggets a 96-89 lead before Lawsons driving layup with 1:15 remaining pushed it to 98-89. McGees breakaway dunk in the first half tied it at 41 with 3:17 left in the second and Lawson hit a layup with 2:12 remaining in the first half to give Denver its first lead of the game, 43-41. Detroit raced off to fast start and led 21-4 with 5:22 left in the first quarter after Greg Monroe hit a pair of free throws. NOTES: It was the fourth game of a five-game road trip for Denver, which has also played seven of its last eight on the road. "It seems like it has been a six-week road trip," Nuggets coach George Karl said before the game. "Might have been." ...
