How was Kenyon's defense? I see 3 blocks and only 2 fouls.

Kenyon did settle for jumpers, which he actually is making a good deal of the time. He looks a lot better shooting the ball, but again his problem is that he'll start drifting farther and farther from the hoop until he's taking jumpers just inside the 3-point line and that's not going to go in.
When KMart got into the post he usually dished it off or he settled for his wild jump hook, which looks like he's throwing up for Camby or Melo to grab an offensive rebound and not looking to actually make the shot.
KMart didn't really get any easy dunks last night.
All the Nuggets starters played pretty great last night, the bench really got beat up all night. KMart was great when he was in, but again his knee looks like it's hampering him. He just doesn't have the explosiveness that makes him so effective.
I guess Melo's ankle flaired up and that's why he sat out the last 10 minutes. He was looking good on offense, but the ankle I reckon did him in...
