I accept. This has been a glorious, yet disappointing season for the Denver Nuggets. This is the beginning of my healing process. WCS was brought on to aid in a push for not just playoff, but title contention this year, but it was not meant to be. The turnaround was hampered by nagging injury after nagging injury, from Dejounte Murray and Derrick White before the season even began, to Will Barton missing two and a half months after just his second game. Dragic went down (and remains there), and then Lowry and Teague missed weeks at the same time. As soon as Boogie got healthy, Gallo, Teague, and WCJ all hit the shelf within days of one another.
Through all of it, Willie steadily produced. He will always be remembered fondly in Denver, but now we look to the future, and a fresh push next year with some new bodies. Best wishes to OKC, I hope that he beats the shit out of Phoenix in the playoffs, and that Willie is the man to push him over the top.
