The Denver Nuggets are title contenders.
I mean this, of course, in a loose sense of the word. Still, there is a legitimate, if infinitesimal, chance that Denver can win a championship.
It appears as if the organization holds the same position. If they aren’t in a prime position to make a run this season, they soon will be. Coach Malone noted before the season that the Nuggets were gearing up for a 110 game season, not just an 82 game season. Even concerning this season, you never know what is possible, especially when employing the skills and magic of Nikola Jokic.
