Murray’s presence elevates the Nuggets from the team with the best player in the NBA to the team with the best two-man game in the league. And that’s no small title belt, seeing as rival contenders like Milwaukee are attempting to ascend to Denver’s level by assembling its own superstar tandems.AAron Ontiveroz, The Denver PostJamal Murray (27) of the Denver Nuggets poses for a portrait on Monday, Sept. 27, 2021.5 Kentavious Caldwell-PopeGuard | 30 | 6-5 | 204“Two-time!

How to respond to teachers’ union president Aime Baca-Oehlert’s screed attacking “conservative school boards” on Oct. 7 in The Denver Post? The best place to start is with what she conveniently chose not to address.In her tirade, she never once referred to the very reason these school boards exist – to deliver academic results. While she correctly states that one of the primary objectives of school boards is to “establish goals,” she, like all union-controlled school boards, avoids defining goals in measurable terms. That’s because, if goals were measurable, she and her colleagues could be held accountable for actual results.The unions’ desire to hide from sunshine is quite understandable when, in union-controlled districts like Denver Public Schools, 60% of students cannot read or write at grade level and 70% of students cannot do math at grade level according to the 2023 Colorado Measures of Academic Success exams. In Adams 14, the numbers are even worse — 86% a...Nathan MacKinnon, Avs get first look at phenom Connor Bedard: “He’s a lot better than me at 18”
