Mile Highs and Lows: A Recap of the Denver Nuggets in September

When the month of September began, the Denver Nuggets were in the final stages of completing their epic 3-1 comeback against the Utah Jazz in the first round of the playoffs. After a couple of humiliating blowout losses, the Nuggets were able to win three in a row to advance to the second round, earning themselves a ticket for a best-of-seven series against one of the title favorites, the Los Angeles Clippers. What ensued was nothing short of a miracle. The Nuggets fell behind in the series once again as the Clippers took a commanding 3-1 series lead, forcing the Nuggets to dig deep and ask themselves if they had what it takes to come back from a 3-1 deficit, not once, but twice in the same postseason.
