Over and Out

As the Nuggets sit around their million dollar homes and watch the rest of the NBA playoffs on their HDTV’s, I’m sure that there is a bit of anxiety inside of all of them concerning the future of the Nuggets organization. With players’ contracts coming to an end and as everyone on the team is about to be one year older come next season, the future is very uncertain in Denver.

Sure, there are some quality building blocks. As ranted about often on this blog, JR Smith offers a promising future, if the Nuggets can afford to resign the up and coming star. Carmelo is the backbone of this team, and with all of his legal woes, hopefully he can turn things around for the betterment of the team. He is still young, and will probably reach his prime in the next few seasons.

Other than that, there’s Iverson, who still plays like he’s 20 even though he’s 33. But his contract may move somewhere else this off season. Chucky Atkins is a veteran who was injured all year but could still have one year left in him. Then there’s Kenyon Martin, who exploded back on the scene this season, but he’s getting pretty old himself.

As this blog goes into the off season with the Nuggets, I would like to thank anyone who had the pleasure of reading this brilliant and insightful publication this season. Signing out, I’m Mase, and this was mase on nuggs.
