So how can we win the Best Picture? Right now, we can’t even get folks to watch the picture. For the customer, the Denver Nuggets fan, it does not appear that significant progress has been made in critical areas throughout most of the season thus far.

Basketball is first-class entertainment. The best picture goes to the picture with the best ingredients: actors, director, producer, writer, and cinematographer.

Do the Nuggets currently have the best entertainment components to win the best picture?  Maybe, probably not, maybe almost, in time. 

There a lot of factors that can go overlooked when it comes to the entertainment the league provides the fans. The game is more than just simply trying to put the ball in the hoop more times than the opposition. You need to be able to execute both your offense and defense properly. Otherwise, it is a recipe for failure in the long run. This is something Denver is far inconsistent with this year.

If winning corrects all ills, what if you don’t win?

There are a million variables involved to be champions; let’s focus on basics and human aspects. Let’s assume we have reasonably professional talented athletes, coaches, management and goals to begin with. What’s next?
