Denver Nuggets coach George Karl has been medically cleared and will return to the bench for the upcoming 2010-2011 season.
↵Karl, who was forced to leave for the the last couple months last season due to his cancer treatments claims he is feeling well and apparently his doctors agree. Many devout fans pinpoint George Karl’s illness as a major distraction in the Nuggets’ previous campaign and a factor in their early playoff exit to a shorthanded Utah Jazz squad.
↵In an offseason filled with turmoil and uncertainty, George Karl’s return is a welcome (and hopefully stabilizing) sign to an organization desperately in need.
