Also, this is assuming GK has his job and everything else stays the same

I'm happy with the team we have.

But maybe they should've signed someone like Devin Brown or Eddie Jones instead of Chucky.

Or maybe they shouldn't have cut Bobby?

Hell, the front office is the main problem IMO. They make trades for cap reasons and not talent reasons, and they sign free agents that don't fit or don't play.

without a doubt front office is to blame.
Karl is still the coach.
Atkins was signed.
Jones was let go...
hell, even BLAKE was let go.

Imagine if we had blake and Carter splitting the time at pg instead of chunky sitting injured on the bench. signing atkins seems terrible right now, but who knows, maybe he comes back for us and actually plays well. we still have two seasons left on his contract if I'm not mistaken. on the bright side, with JR injured, his value will be even less than before, so if we want to re-sign him it should be on the cheap. I know it's just an excuse, but can you imagine how much better the Nugs would be without these injuries every ****ing year. I mean ****. I'm so sick and ****ing tired of this bull****. the Nuggets have the ultimate injury curse. seriously. when I'm bored I'm gonna look up the games missed due to injury for the last 4 seasons combined. I bet nobody even ****ing touches us.

Expensive roster thats never on the court together due to injuries and when you do get them on teh court there are chemistry issues. I would definitely be considering some trades. I would keep the core three of camby, melo and AI together and try to move nene, jr, and klieza or najera. I would prefer to keep klieza but he's about the only role player that anybody could possibly want that denver has. I would consider moving AI for a big guard like Kidd. The only problem with that is you're moving the only player thats been relatively healthy all year for a guy in his last days and has chronic health problems. The priority of the front office should be trying to dump these guys with chronic issues and make them somebody else's problem. Also denver kind of killed the trade value of good players like jr smith just by bad mouthing him in the media. I dont expect him to just step into the starting line up just because AI is gone. Karl hates the kid.

a major trade....or AD getting a chance. J Kidd, Bibby, I'd prefer Kidd, but Bibby would be nice.

I thought all this time something else was brewing. Yeah, Gk requested he play with guys he trusted and not to change his crew around all the time, .....but a supporting cast matters even more than the actual superstars on the team.

What I'm thinking is the FO is failing to maximize its assets. AI is torn between SG and PG, Carter is more of a good backup, JR probably won't become the next young pg......bring on another damn point guard already.

Or somethin'! Where exactly is this bar set, anyway?

couldn't agree more...i think that's why the Blazers are becoming such a good team. each player is as important as the next, regardless if they start or not. everyone has a role to fill.

it seems Karl is like, well here are my starters, here's the bench, and this is the order of preference i play them in, instead of having players become defined by game situations and what they can bring to the team.

George Karl = Epic Fail
