Kleiza, Najera remain Nuggets
At the Pepsi Center on Thursday, the Nuggets' diamond-encrusted watches simultaneously ticked 1 p.m., and there stood Linas Kleiza on the practice court, his gym bag packed for tonight's Nuggets game at Chicago.

Spoilerfix doesn't say whether Crane's restroom encounter is a one-off deal or will come back to haunt him.
