A number of NBA sources are telling me that the Denver Nuggets are in the hunt for a Top 10 pick. Nuggets GM Mark Warkentein has been calling around trying to gauge interest in teams selling the pick. According to sources Warkentein is offering Ty Lawson for the pick. A Nuggets source said the Nuggets are looking for big man to fill up their front line. Several bigs including Cole Aldrich, Ed Davis, Ekpe Udoh, Patrick Patterson, Daniel Orton and Hassan Whiteside could be there at 10.

this would be one the dumbest decisions ever!!! keep Ty!!!!!

Pacers eye Lawson and Collison

Wells writes: "The Pacers are interested in Lawson, according to a source. The Pacers are willing to give up their pick -- No. 10 -- in next week's draft to get player that will help them immediately. The Pacers wouldn't be searching for a point guard if they had taken Lawson instead of Tyler Hansbrough last year."

Wells also reports the Pacers have reached out to New Orleans about the availability of point guard Darren Collison.

No one. Denver isn't giving them Lawson.

You're right, Denver's not "giving" us Lawson. We're paying for him with a very valuable top-10 draft pick.

Close to half of all 10th picks end up busts, and only 4% turn into superstars, so it is not that valuable of a pick. Unless the Nuggets are completely sold on a player that drops they are not going to do this deal.

Nobody likes Chad Ford. His "sources" just like to mess with whatever little credibility he has by feeding him BS, and then laughing behind his back.
