Denver Nuggets

There’s a lot for the NBA to be thankful for this time of year. Stephen Curry’s bombs; Marc Gasol’s everything; the Mavericks offense; the Kings’ illogical record; Jimmy Butler’s surge; Anthony Davis’ god mode; San Antonio being San Antonio; Damian Lillard’s cold-bloodedness; and so much more. Truth told, there is also plenty the league could [...]

Holy crap, the Warriors are good. I could stop there, because that’s all you need to know. They’re taking over the NBA one game at a time, and assuming health, won’t be stopping anytime soon. Nor will I, because you deserve more than some pre-rankings Warriors-loving. So with that in mind, here’s a choppy portrait [...]

Allow me to tell you a secret. Injuries suck. The NBA has been a hotbed for injuries and sad storylines early on, and it sucks and blows simultaneously. So, too, does the whole early-season confusion. There is so much inconsistency around the Association this time of year. Good teams aren’t good, bad teams aren’t bad, [...]

You guys. It wasn’t a dream. The NBA is still back. Shhh. Stop fist-pumping and -bumping and -twerking so loudly. You might scare the regular season away. There. That’s better. The first week of the 2014-15 season was crazy. There were plenty of exciting games, and even more devastating injuries.  There were surprise wins, and [...]

Oh my god, oh my god, oh my god, oh my god, oh my god. The NBA is back. Like, really back. Not summer-league back. Not FIBA World Cup back. Not training camp back. Not preseason back. Regular-season back. The Hoop Doctors’ totally awesome, not-at-all restrained power rankings back. That’s right. After a months-long hiatus—during which time yours [...]

Initially, the Denver Nuggets offered a five-year, $60 million contract with their rising superstar Kenneth Faried a few days ago. But now, both parties have reworked this agreement and has resulted to the finalizing of a four-year, $50 million deal, according to Adrian Wojnarowski of Yahoo! Sports. [tweet https://twitter.com/WojYahooNBA/status/519627208671760389] Wojnarwoski further explains about this new [...]

Kenneth Faried has 60 million more reasons to smile now. Denver Nuggets fans have 60 million reasons to scratch their heads. According to Yahoo Sports’ Adrian Wojnarowski, Faried has agreed to a contract extension with the Nuggets that’s worth $60 million: Denver Nuggets forward Kenneth Faried has reached agreement on a five-year, $60 million contract [...]

Playing for the Denver Nuggets must be a drag. Never mind the millions of dollars you’re being paid. Or the beautiful views. Or the up-and-coming, free-spirited, young-at-heart atmosphere that dominates the streets. It must plain suck being an NBA player in Denver who likes to have a good time. Well, really, it shouldn’t. For J.J. [...]

Knicks gonna Knicks. The New York Knicks registered interest in the Denver Nuggets’ Kenneth Faried last season. We know this. But what many didn’t know is that they apparently came off as desperate. Per BasketballInsiders.com Steve Kyler (h/t FanSided.com): [tweet https://twitter.com/stevekylerNBA/status/508270654496718848] This would seem to make sense. Back in February, when rumors first surfaced, it [...]

August and the NBA don’t together. News is typically slow this time of year, leaving fans and scribes to look for topics of interest and note. When the Kevin Love rumors aren’t flowing and the San Antonio Spurs offense isn’t running like a well-oiled, time-tested machine, that’s a ridiculously hard task. Benny Kriefall of Minnesota [...]
