Not surprising. That's an excellent contract.

Rumors that the Nuggets may be trading a 2nd rounder for Speights.

I guess the nuggets are looking for someone to replace JR as Karl's whipping boy.

Man, I wish this Nene and AA stuff would end one way or another.

a. Awesome name.
b. I haven't heard anything about what the actual deal was for but if it isn't much, I would kinda be shocked for us not to match it. Hes could easily grow into a solid role player with some consistency on minutes. Tough worker and fairly skilled actually.

+1 I think you guys should match; you need a bench swingman and he is on a reasonable deal.

nuggets are reportedly super close to acquiring rudy fernadez from the mavericks for draft considerations. please do not give up a first rounder denver, fernadez would be a nice addition off the bench but not necessary, give em a second rounder, be smart.

Yep, the dude isn't worth a first rounder, especially since everyone knows they want to get rid of him.

looks official rudy is part of the nuggets but what did we give up. also brewer might be coming in with rudy as well. so long for hamilton getting any minutes and forbes will probably not get a match if brewer comes.

lawson/miller
afflalo/fernandez
gallinari/brewer
get a pf/faried/harrington
mozgov/koufos

next steps

bring back nene or sign carl landry.
trade wilson chandler for a draft pick


i think this squad will makes the playoffs easily but need time to make it work

Sounds like it is Brewer and Fernandez for a future 2nd, which I think means the Nuggets are not going to match on Forbes. Nuggets still have a long way to go to be a lock for the playoffs.

So long as AAA comes back, great off season with the Nene signing and bringing in Brewer and Rudy.
