"You know, (the critics) were like, 'Oh, maybe he's getting old,' this and that," Wolfe recalled. "My response was like, 'Eh, I'm not even 30 years old yet, so, that's not very old. We'll see."

In short: Allen has a chance to become a troublemaker in Denver, and that's not a bad thing.

"Sure, I think playing well does that," he said. "Obviously, I want to play well. I want to win."

I think through his time off, he's been able to solve some of those issues emotionally and mentally."
