30 Teams In 30 Days: Denver Nuggets

2007-2008 in Review Record: 50-32 Western Conference Seed: 8 Playoff Results: Lost to LAL in Western Conference Quarterfinals (4-0)   Summer of 2008 Key Additions: Renaldo Balkman (via trade), Chris Andersen (via free agency), Dahntay Jones (via free agency), Mateen Cleaves. Key Losses: Marcus Camby (via trade), Eduardo Najera (via free agency), Yakhouba Diawara (via free agency), Bobby Jones (via free agency).   “Haha, shut up.” “Stop playing around.” “Are you kidding me?” That was my reaction in mid-July when I found out that the Denver Nuggets had traded Marcus Camby to the Clippers for the right to swap 2010 second-round draft picks.
