Denver Nuggets: Are they contenders yet?
There is already a lot of speculation surrounding the Denver Nuggets and how good they really are this season.
The Denver Nuggets are off to their best start since the infamous 2009-10 campaign.
You know, the same campaign which saw the Denver “Thuggets,” go all the way to the Western Conference Finals led by Chauncey Billups, a prime Carmelo Anthony and a nice supporting cast consisting of enforcers such as Kenyon Martin, Nene, Chris Andersen and J.R. Smith.
We all know how the story ended for them. A loss to the Kobe Bryant led Lakers in the Western Conference Finals after a ferociously fought six games.
