In a previous article it was noted that Denver’s defense would determine how far Denver would go next season. Also noted in that article was the role Jeff Bzdelik played in Houston’s massive improvement on the defensive end.
What never got mentioned was Jeff Bzdelik’s stint as head coach of the Denver Nuggets for about two years. Admittedly, things never went quite as well in Denver as they did last year in Houston.
However, Jeff’s legacy with the Denver Nuggets, whilst definitely short lived, will almost certainly be defined by one of the biggest turnarounds in NBA history.
