Need to re-sign Nene, Afflalo, JR in order of priority.

WC I'm not sure about, would let him walk and use that money to try and sign Tyson Chandler who I think would compliment this team perfectly... if not, would be ok with re-signing him or trading him for Fields as wiretap suggests. If JR does go, then then keeping Chandler or trading for Fields would be ideal since we need that scoring off the bench.

Kmart i would let walk, the goal for next season (if there is one) should be to move Nene back to the 4... it'd be a miracle to get rid of Harrington's contract so I doubt he will be moved. Felton I would look to trade for a backup PG and a extra piece... something like Felton for Ridnour + pick #20 of this year's draft.

Obviously fire Karl for Adelman.

Chandler - Mozgov
Nene - Birdman
Gallo - Harrington
Afflalo - JR
Lawson - Ridnour

I agree on who to resign, although I still don't see Jr coming back, I don't know that I would in his situation.

WC I think I would look to do a sign and trade.

tyson Chandler I don't think I would resign, the money he will get along with his injury history makes it a high risk signing, and I don't think the Nuggets are in a position to do that right now.

KMart i agree with, just let him go at this point.

I would look to move birdman especially if your plan is to bring in a starting center, I have not really been all that impressed with Bird this year, and think I would rather have Mozgov and Koufos fight for the minutes.

I don't know if we can move Harrington, there were rumors around the deadline that the Rockets were interested in him, but who knows if that was only if he was attached to Melo.

I would be okay with the Felton deal you propose, although I think I would rather move him to a team like the Blazers where they have someone like Batum who they may be looking to move for a PG.

Fields would be the worst wing defender we have on the roster, I would prefer to move chandler in a sign and trade for pieces we need, or future picks.

i think Raymond felton & Wilson Chandler, Chris Anderson for NIcolas Batum, Marcus Camby, Andre Miller. This would definitely help us if camby can stay healthy.We can Move nene to to the pf.

Lawson/Miller
Afflalo/Batum/forbes
Gallinari/batum
nene/Harrington
Camby/mozgov/koufos

If Karl stays JR should go. I can't imagine the two ever co-existing. Personally I'd rather see Karl go, just because I feel we'll never be a serious playoff team with him at the helm.

I have no complaints on the season we had & proud of the team.

That being sad. Moving forward i believe FO realized Karl's weaknesses after this season & really hope they seriously look to upgrade. (Rick Adelman !)

I prefer to keep WC and trade Felton for a decent back up PG and pick. J.R i think very much gone unless some miracle happens and we get rid of Karl but unlikely.

Please do not even mention the name Camby here.
George Karl !

Jonny Flynn (yes i'm high on him and think he'll be better out of the triangle) + #20 for Felton wouldnt be a bad option to add more young talent to the team.

Denver Post wrote:"In my eyes, I'm here," said shooting guard Arron Afflalo, who is a restricted free agent and hopes to sign a long-term contract with the Nuggets this summer. "That's the plan. At this point, that's how I'm moving forward."

Others, including unrestricted free agent J.R. Smith, said they would be open to re-signing with Denver but would explore other options.

The Nuggets went 18-7 down the stretch after the megatrade of Carmelo Anthony to the New York Knicks. Nuggets executive Masai Ujiri would like to build off that momentum.

"We're going to try to keep the core together and build from here," he said. "That's the goal."

Asked specifically about Afflalo, an off guard who averaged 12.6 points per game in a breakout season, Ujiri said there's "no question" he will be a Nugget for years to come.

Ujiri also said he's had positive talks with forward Wilson Chandler about staying in Denver. Chandler, a restricted free agent, struggled in his first-ever postseason. He was comfortable in the Knicks' system and is willing to look at other options, but the Nuggets like his game and his potential to improve at age 23.

Nuggets want to build on core, keep Afflalo - The Denver Post http://www.denverpost.com/nuggets/ci_17 ... z1KuyIt9JF

I would like to see the Nuggets trade Felton, use their draft pick on a pg/sg and sign a free agent PF. If Nene opts out, resign him long term, and match/resign Afflalo and Chandler. I would also strongly encourage Harrington to spend the offseason working with Hess so his fat ass comes to camp in shape next year if he can't be dumped on some other undeserving team :lol: I think JR and Kmart will look to sign somewhere else.

GK doesn't like to play rookies unless he has to and I want Lawsome getting the time he deserves. Plus, if Harrington and a rookie PF are the options at the 4 spot, Harrington will be logging heavy minutes.

I think I would trade Felton to the Pistons for CV and the 7th overall pick, even if we had to throw in a future 2nd I think they would do it, they desperately need a starting PG, and I am sure the new owner would like to lose some of their bad contracts.

harrington I think can be moved, although it might cost us taking on another bad contract, or adding in our 1st, which I would do if we could pull of the Felton to Detroit deal. There were confirmed rumors that Dallas wanted Harrington and offered basically the same deal the Nuggets did, also it was said at the deadline that the Rockets felt they needed Harrington's scoring off the bench.

I would also dump Andersen for a late 1st or 2nd round pick, or trade him straight up for Beidrens or haywood, which both teams may do to save money.

Doing both of those would leave us Nene/ Beidrens/ Mozgov/ 8th pick/ koufos/ CV in the front court.

Which while still having a couple of bad contract, I think would be a good enough front court to move the team to the next level.

We would definitely be better off signing a free agent pg. Drafting a pg that late in this draft is just like throwing the pick away. If we have to use it, I would use it on a 4/5 oversea prospect.

If I had my way, we would just swap it for a future first.

Do you guys have any interest in Okafor? We will take Harrington and Birdman off your hands in return.
