The question was as straightforward as the response.
With a record of 6-6, what do you, Kenneth Faried, think about the Nuggets’ start?
“We’re doing better than I thought we would,” Faried said. “Being honest.”
The Nuggets began the day on Friday in eighth place in the Western Conference. And from an early schedule standpoint, Faried’s optimism finds merit.
Seven of the Nuggets’ first 12 opponents made the playoffs last season, and that doesn’t take a game against Oklahoma City into account. The Nuggets also played seven of their first 12 games on the road.
