Arthur likely to opt out, TC would like to reward his loyalty

I feel how he fits in going forward depends on what the Nuggets do in the draft. If they take a PF high they need to let DA walk to create room for him. Currently the front court has 3 young players who deserve playing time plus Faried and then Arthur. I see another 3 year dealing happening for a guy who ends up near the end of the bench.

Either Arthur or Faried, but just can't see both especially because Jokic might play PF for a few minutes and Lauvergne is better suited as PF than C --- probably as a backup. Add in a rookie, maybe, just too many bodies at PF.

This is slightly off-topic but have you guys heard of the "Pay the Pick" season ticket offer the Nuggets have going right now?

Basically if the Nuggets win the lottery, you get season tickets for $1 per game. 22% chance of paying $3 or less per game, and the worst case scenario is essentially $7/game. They're terrible seats, but I'm seriously tempted.

Smart marketing ploy unless we win the lotto and it turns into a hot ticket. Decent gamble though and kind of a win-win on their end.

As for Arthur, I would like him back if we move Faried because I think he bring a lot of veteran leadership even if he is buried on the bench. I think coaches have loved him here because of his great communication skills on the floor and smart defensive play. If he isn't back here, I hope he gets a chance to contribute to a contender. I have felt like he could be a nice complimentary piece off the bench next to a low post presence.

Finally a smart marketing move!
