Hope he recovers.

Say what you want about him as far as coaching success...but without him you can stick a fork in the Nuggets.

I don't know, I honestly feel Billups will be able to run the show pretty well and with the whole "do it for the gipper" motivation the Nuggest might be a tad more dangerous... but of course it's extremely hard to rationalize losing a coach for any reason helping a team... unless that coach is Dunleavy.

I personally know 2 people who have went through this treatment for throat cancer. It is very hard and requires lengthy recovery once the treatment is complete. I do not see how he can finish the season once he completes his treatment. Hopefully he can but I have my doubts. The good news it there is a good cure rate for it. I just hope he didn't let it go too long.
