Chandler has made steady progress and has shown that he was a valuable part of the streak with several offensive breakout performances. He is versatile in that he can play and defend multiple positions. He has been excellent playing PF and playing the scoring 6th man role. It's nice that he can change games with his defense as well.
In my opinion, Chandler, Iggy, Gallo each have their pros/cons but they are interchangeable. If Chandler can play 30 mpg and average a 16-17 PER with good defense in a long Nugget playoff run. Then his contract suddenly becomes a nice value contract. I think the Nuggets would like to use at least one of these guys as a piece to get a superstar. Would a team want Chandler (young, above average, value contract), or Gallo (young, higher ceiling, more expensive), or Iggy (win now, intangibles, suffocating defense, more expensive). Which of these guys will have the most composure?
How will Lawson do under the pressure of the playoffs? He started off slowly, but was playing phenomenally until his heel injury. Is he ready to take the step as a leader and top 5 PG in the league?
6th man position - It seems like at times during the season, different players have been that impact player off the bench. Who will be the sixth man in the playoffs? Chandler, McGee/Dre, Brewer.
