Jason Thompson is not a good fit here in Denver, i would rather put Faried out there to gamble over JT any day.

Dre for expirings + first or keep him.

And I'd rather have Koufos than JT tbh.

that only leaves the question of whether rudy could be an acceptable replacement for andre.


Hopefully he accepts the situation soon, Karl is spoiling him all he can with minutes and extra time at the end of the games etc. We do not see this much of a nice treat from Karl much.

Stone doesn't play 30 minutes.

He plays 15 mpg as a true backup. Dre is getting 30 because he plays 15 as the PG and 15 as the SG.

Doesn't matter if he's unhappy with his role, he's playing well and helping the team. Nuggets should hang onto him.

With all the good, young point guards in the league right now, how many teams does Andre Miller actually start on? Maybe 2-3? And how many are going to want to pay him starters money? Not many. He's still playing a high level, but the guy is almost 36.

Either way, the Nuggets are going to be in a tough situation financially here soon. Gallo and Lawson are both due for contract extensions in the next year or two. Plus it sounds like we're going to try to re-sign Chandler to a new deal. That's going to be a lot of money locked up for a potentially mediocre team. Our FO is going to have to make some decisions, are they confident that you can build a contender around a core of Lawson/Afflalo/Chandler/Gallo/Nene?

The only concern for a veteran should be titles. Not playing time. He should worry wether the team he is playing for is providing stability and the chance to win a title.

He's terrible. I wouldn't mind if the Blazers let him walk. We'll add Batum for anyone that takes him...

We have a guy in L.A. that looks like him, plays like him, and wants to be like him in Darius Morris. Would be a nice fit acquiring Andre. I hate his three point shooting but I think you can get around that.

How about Nash and a second rounder for Dre, and Faried, and maybe Hamilton.
