[The Rebel]

Espn polled 100 of their employees, predicted nuggets tied with the Clippers for 4th/5th.

On a pretty unrelated note, ESPN also the Nuggets have the 84th best uniforms in pro sports. So... there's that.

9. Denver Nuggets

SEASON OPENER: Oct. 31 at Philadelphia.
LAST SEASON: Lost 4-3 to Lakers in 1st round.
Sorry to keep hitting on the “strong 1 through 10″ theme, but damn — you know? There is nobody here who is a proven go-to scorer, and Al Harrington’s bench production will be missed. But Andre Iguodala was a helluva pick-up for a team that allowed 101.2 points per game last season. Two deep everywhere, and sitting on a $13 million trade exception.

The Nuggets will be the SSOL Suns reborn, I tell you. If they sport a top 4 record into the home stretch, they're golden, but I don't expect anyone on the squad to be in MVP conversation because no one is a high-volume scorer.

The difference between what the Nuggets are planning to run and the SSOL suns, is that the Nuggets want their offense to run based on defensive stops, the Suns plan was to always run regardless of the situation.
