Denver Nuggets: A Glance at 3 Weeks to Close December

The Denver Nuggets have fought their way into first place and are solidifying the idea of how good they are.

The Denver Nuggets are having a season like they have never had before.  One where they are actually contenders.  This year had a high expectation compared to the last couple of years.  They really needed to make noise in the postseason.  This team, however, has made us think so much more is possible.  They have proved they are more than a flare-up or an anomaly and have performed consistent enough thus far to take them to first place and declare it for the non-believers.

This December is going to be big for the Nuggets beyond success on the court.  The return of the injured Will Barton is highly anticipated and expected to be soon.  This is also when we are supposed to see Isaiah Thomas for the first time as a Nugget which is destined to be electric.  Hopefully, the last month of this year will also return Gary Harris to the team.  The Mile-Hi crew will enter 2019 as a fresh, new team with energy to see the rest of the season home.

Let’s look at the rest of the month and what the Nuggets have in store for the rest of this year.
