Getting Stiffed: the Denver Nuggets and the 1991 NBA Lottery

Three times in the lottery era the Denver Nuggets have been at least tied for the best chance of securing the #1 overall pick. All three times they didn't win. We've covered the 2003 loss and the ridiculous 1998 loss, this week we'll dive into the 1991 loss. A loss which, for all intents and purposes, is about as good of a loss as you can have.

The 1990-1991 Nuggets were ridiculous. If you talk to our own Jeff Morton about that team you're likely to cause him to gray a few hairs and lose a few others.
