Anthony had 14 points when he was tossed with 2:40 remaining in the third quarter for arguing with officials over a non-call.
Down by five at the break, the Nuggets regained the lead for the first time since early in the first period when Nene completed a three-point play to put Denver up 62-61 with 5:31 remaining in the third quarter.
The Nuggets scored the next six points on a 3-pointer by Arron Afflalo(notes) and three free throws by Billups, including one for a technical foul call on Milwaukee coach Scott Skiles.
Milwaukee had closed to 68-65 when Anthony drove to the basket for a layup attempt and Sanders blocked the shot against the backboard. Anthony complained immediately to the officials that there should have been a goaltending call and when he persisted was hit with the first technical.
During a television timeout after that initial sequence, Anthony renewed his complaint with the officials and was hit with a second technical, leading to his automatic expulsion. He was escorted off the floor.
The Nuggets nevertheless maintained command, taking a 76-71 lead into the fourth quarter. They stretched their lead with a 7-0 burst that included a pair of free throws and a basket by Al Harrington(notes). After Billups hit a 3-pointer with 7:39 left, Denver had a comfortable 90-79 advantage.
Milwaukee led by as many as 11 in the second quarter, going in front 36-25 on Sanders’ 16-foot jumper with 7:18 left in the period. The Nuggets didn’t let the Bucks get any further in front, chipping away at the lead over the final 5 minutes of the first half to pull to 50-45.
NOTES: Bucks F Drew Gooden(notes) was back in action after being held out of the previous game because of plantar fasciitis in his left foot. … Milwaukee was missing center Andrew Bogut(notes) (neck) and forward Carlos Delfino(notes) (neck). … The Nuggets’ longest active losing streak to another team was three games to the Bucks. … Sanders also had 10 rebounds.Follow my blogs and tweets. http://dxjayrocksnotes.blogspot.com/ and https://twitter.com/dxjayrock

An update on forward Carlos Delfino regarding his concussion.
Bucks' Delfino recovering from concussion
St. Francis — Carlos Delfino admits the last 30 days have been "scary" after he suffered a concussion, an injury he initially thought was just a bump on the head.
The Milwaukee Bucks forward went from swishing three-pointers and making pinpoint passes on the basketball court to lying in a dark room in his apartment, unable to watch TV or even look at a computer.
If he talked too much, his head would ache.
Now the 28-year-old Argentine is taking some small steps forward, such as riding a stationary bike Tuesday while his teammates prepared for Wednesday night's game against Indiana.
"It's frustrating because it's nothing you can control," Delfino said. "It's not like a knee injury where you go and work and you lift weights. Here it's your brain, and every single thing you do, you're using your brain.
"I wasn't able to watch TV or read on the Internet or read books or even talk, because if I was talking I was having headaches. I had vertigo and dizziness."
Delfino has made definite progress in the last few weeks and recently was evaluated by Bucks team physician Sam Idarraga and neuropsychologist Michael McCrea. Their evaluation showed Delfino to be 90% free of his concussive symptoms.
But Delfino will not be able to return to the court until he is symptom-free.
"Even now if I'm driving, I can't talk at the same time," Delfino said. "I'm able to drive and I feel safe driving. But if I'm on the passenger side, even one week ago, I was feeling like every car was coming to me.
"If someone is talking to me or calling on the phone, I can't stay too long. I can focus on only one thing right now."
Delfino also suffered a concussion in late March when he was inadvertently stepped on by Miami's Udonis Haslem in a game at the Bradley Center. Delfino was taken off the floor on a stretcher that night.
But his latest injury was not so obvious, occurring when he was taking a charge and his head hit another player's knee during a game at Minnesota on Oct. 29, the second game of the season.
The next night, in the Bucks' home opener against Charlotte, he took an inadvertent elbow to his ear as he rebounded the ball in the fourth quarter.
"It was just an action from the game," Delfino said. "After the elbow shot on my ear, I started to be more shaky and more tired. But for me it was nothing really serious."
The following weekend Delfino took a blow to the cheekbone from Indiana's Danny Granger, and the next night against New Orleans he was feeling dizzy and came out of the game in the first half.
"At the beginning I wasn't taking too much care of that," Delfino said. "Every single hit you take, you're going to feel it. That's why I had two things at the same time. I had a vestibular issue from the ear shot."
When he returns to the court, Delfino will play with protective headgear that he already has sampled.
"I don't want to work out with that," Delfino said, "but it will be something useful for me. We know I'm going to wear it and it's going to help. But we don't know the date when I'm going to get back."
Delfino said he is working on his memory and feeling better in his reaction to light and sound. He sat on the Bucks bench for a brief time Saturday during the game against Orlando, the first time he had been able to do that since the injury.
"I was there for a couple minutes, but it was really hard with the lights and music, and it was loud," Delfino said. "I was trying to watch the game. I was there one month ago and it was such a different experience.
"I was here playing and competing; then one month later I was in a suit. My brain right now is just one step back. It's frustrating because there's nothing you can do.
"You just continue to work on the little things and focus on that. Hopefully step by step I will continue to get better."
Delfino's wife, Martina, has been a strong source of support, and he said his parents, Carlos and Cristina, traveled from Argentina and stayed in Milwaukee for one week.
"It was great for them and me," Delfino said. "I'm trying to show them I'm OK.
"And everyone here in the organization is great to me. With the symptoms of a concussion you change emotions; you get sometimes aggressive or emotional. I know I've been like that."
Delfino also credited his teammates for texting him and showing their support.
He emerged as a key player for the Bucks last season when he played in 75 games, including 66 starts, and averaged 11 points and 5.3 rebounds.
It was his three-pointer from the corner that helped lift the Bucks to a Game 5 victory over the Atlanta Hawks in the first round of the playoffs, although the Bucks eventually fell in seven games.
Then he had a highly productive summer while playing for the Argentine national team in the FIBA World Championship, teaming with Luis Scola as the South American nation placed fifth.
And Delfino was the Bucks starting small forward and off to a great start (averaging 12.9 points in seven games) before being sidelined.
"The day I shoot the ball again, I know I'm going to make a huge step," Delfino said.
"When you have a concussion your head is fragile and you're at risk. I already have two concussions and it's something that can be serious if I don't take care of it."Sacramento Kings

That's awful. I'm surprised they won this game, although 32/40 FT shooting helps (7/10 from Bogut).
"I really like the attitudes of eagles. They never give up. When they grab a fish or something else, they never let it go. It doesn't matter. In a book, they write they find a skeleton of [an] eagle and there is no fish. It means that the fish beat him and killed him, but he didn't let go." -- Donatas Motiejunas

The return of Chris Douglas-Roberts have been a most welcome presence for the scoring struggles of the Bucks where the team is last in the league in points scored as a team. Douglas-Roberts scored 21 points against the San Antonio Spurs, which is a team high.
Since John Salmons is out, I expect Douglas-Roberts to remain as the starting off-guard and try to take the scoring work-load from Brandon Jennings and Andrew Bogut.Sacramento Kings
