How the Denver Nuggets roster timeline works

Nuggets past and present fill these cards, and the timeline orders them by the year each player arrived in Denver. Most cards show a position below the name. You'll see one player already in place, his year printed. As each new card comes up, pick the gap that fits his arrival. Correct, and the year is revealed; incorrect, and the card still finds its true place while one of your three lives disappears.

Denver came over from the ABA, and the deck follows the club from those days through the run-and-gun teams famous for piling up points, a long middle of uneven seasons and the recent title team built around passing big men. Guards outnumber everyone else among the printed positions. The hard part is the players who passed through between those peaks, when rosters changed often and few names stuck.

Want a longer game? On the deck tree you can tick this deck alongside any other one measured in release years and dates, and they shuffle into a single timeline together.
