Mile High NUGGETS Hoops....the NUGS had some kind of Run in 2012-13 and then they make Wholesale Changes...New Lead Man B-SHAW from the Town as they lose and add PIECES to a New Roster for 2013-14...SQUEEZE the ORANGE "NUGS Nation + Mascot ROCKY = MANIMAL Gone Wild" #MileHighNUGS #TEAM5280FtAboveOceanWater

The Denver Nuggets agreed to disagree and agree that it was time for a change. What caught the Nugs and CEO Josh Kroenke by surprise was the sudden loss of GM Masai Ujiri back to the Dinosaurs of Toronto. That prompted the Nugs to not give any additional years to an expiring Contract for then Nugs Lead Man George Karl. Then the list didn't stop there as Nugs Shooting Guard Andre Igoudala left some $11 million plus on the Table and opted out of his deal. Corey Brewers bolted back to 10K Lakes as he likes snow and the cold something wrong with "Brew Crew" as he hails from Tennessee. They did add JJ Hickson from the Blazers and Free Agent SG Randy "Foye Boy" Foye, "Slim Shady" Arthur, and "KRYPTOnate" Robinson from the Bulls for quality depth. What will the Nugs do for an Encore in the 2013-14 Season with all these new pieces?

The Starting Line Up has some real nice pieces as McGee moves into Shaw's Starting Five with Mozgov coming off the pine. LAWdawg Lawson is the most underrated PG in the Logo. The MANimal Faried is a "Monster on the Glass" and Chandler is a smooth scoring Wing.

Hickson, Randolph, and Arthur gives the Nugs flexibility upfront and quality depth to play with anyone in the Logo.

Nate and Dre Miller give them a nice change of pace at the point with 'Dre playing off the Orange.

Youngsters Hamilton, Quincy Miller, and Evan Fournier are talented as Fournier maybe the only one of the three to get in the Rotation.

They have pieces but can the Nugs make a run in a somewhat loaded Northwest Division?
