2016–17 Denver Nuggets season: The 2016–17 Denver Nuggets season was the 41st season of the franchise in the National Basketball Association (NBA).  Thanks to the continuing improvements of Nikola Jokić, the Nuggets would make significant improvements to their team, although they would be just one game shy from reaching the NBA playoffs that year.  Ironically, they would lose out of that playoff spot to the Portland Trail Blazers, who made a trade to help improve their team by getting rid of center Jusuf Nurkić and acquiring Mason Plumlee in the process.

2009–10 Denver Nuggets season: The 2009–10 Denver Nuggets season was the 43rd season of the franchise, its 34th in the National Basketball Association (NBA).  After their trip the Conference Finals last season, the Nuggets started the season 35-18 before the All-Star break.  Coach George Karl and Carmelo Anthony were the only Nuggets to represent the Western Conference in the 2010 NBA All-Star Game.  During the break, Anthony sported a new haircut.  However, not long after the break, dark clouds gathered around the team as coach Karl was diagnosed with neck and throat cancer.  Adrian Dantley took over and the team struggled in the second half of the season, finishing with a 53-29 record and earned the number 4 seed in the West.  Denver's season ended in the first round with a defeat to the Jazz in six games.

2006–07 Denver Nuggets season: The 2006–07 Denver Nuggets season was the 40th season of the franchise, 31st in the National Basketball Association (NBA).  The season is best remembered when Carmelo Anthony made headlines on December 15 when he was involved in a brawl against the Knicks, allowing the league to suspend him for the next 15 games.  Four days after, the Nuggets made a bold move, acquiring Allen Iverson from Philadelphia.  Anthony and newly acquired Iverson played their first game together on January 22, 2007 in a game against Memphis.  The Nuggets finished the year at 45-37, making the postseason for the fourth straight year.  However, they did not make it out of the first round, losing to the eventual champion San Antonio Spurs in five games.  Anthony and Iverson were voted to play in the 2007 NBA All-Star Game.  However, Iverson did not play due to an injury.  This was Anthony's first All-Star game appearance and the first time since Antonio McDyess in 2001 where a Nugget was voted to an All-Star game.

1976 ABA All-Star Game: The 1976 ABA All Star Game was the 9th and final American Basketball Association All-Star Game, played at McNichols Arena in Denver, Colorado on January 27, 1976.  This time, the league abandoned the usual East vs. West format it used from the 1967-68 season onward and instead had the league's first place team at the All Star break face off against a team of ABA All Stars.  At the All Star break the Denver Nuggets were in first place, which was convenient as the Nuggets had also been selected to host the game in McNichols Arena.  Kevin Loughery of the New York Nets coached the All-Stars while Larry Brown led the Denver Nuggets.  This was the second year in a row that Loughery and Brown coached against each other in the ABA All-Star Game.  (The Nuggets went on to finish the regular season in first place at 60-24 (.714), but after beating the Kentucky Colonels 4 games to 3 in the ABA Semifinals the Nuggets lost in the 1976 ABA Finals to the New York Nets, 4 games to 2.)

During this season Green was an NCAA honorable mention All American.  Green was drafted with the eleventh pick in the second round of the 1981 NBA Draft by the Denver Nuggets; however, the Nuggets waived Green before the start of the 1981-82 NBA season.  He was signed by the Portland Trail Blazers before the 1985–86 NBA season, but was once again waived before the start of the season.  On March 25, 1986 the New York Knicks signed Green to a 10-day contract and then signed him to a contract for the rest of the season on April 4, 1986.

The Nuggets ended their streak of five straight first-round exits after Carmelo Anthony was drafted in 2003, advancing to the Conference Finals, where they lost to the eventual champion Los Angeles Lakers in six games, ending the Nuggets season and playoff run.

2010–11 Denver Nuggets season: The 2010–11 Denver Nuggets season was the 44th season of the franchise, its 35th in the National Basketball Association (NBA).  After half a season of rumors and speculation, the Nuggets granted Carmelo Anthony his wish by trading him to the New York Knicks on February 21 as part of a three-team trade with the Minnesota Timberwolves.
