If we get Bynum, Nuggets fans think (perhaps over optimistically) that we would still make the playoffs this year as a 6-7 seed, and then would just be back to competing next season if we land Jeff Green or Jrich or any decent SF in free agency.
I can't see why Nuggets wouldn't make the playoffs. Denver frontcourt would scare the **** out of most teams. Nene+Bynum = beastly front court. Nene added a bit of range to his game but it doesn't matter tho, you could even start Jr "blackhole" Smith so you have plenty of 3-point threats.
Billups, Affalo, Smith
Nene - Bynum
Nene would shine even more guarding and being guarded by PFs He would beast his way to the rim against most PFs lol... and he's a great passer too. He would work with Bynum very well.
If somehow the responsability of being a starter gave Smith some kind of maturity then I see this line up as a better team than the Nuggets have today. Maybe I underrate Melo, dunno... But the instantly defensive upgrade that a team with such a beastly FrontCourt would get out-weights any offensive loss by not having Melo on the team... and defense wins championships.
And yeh, as I laker fan would not trade Bynum for Melo, mainly because he would not work with Kobe and also because I would kill myself due the frustation of watching Pau Gasol playing C for 82-100 games every season.
But I would love to get Melo's expiring contract, tho. He'll do anything in order to get a ring in his first year knowing that it'll be his best shot at it because he ain't winning **** at the Knicks...
Dude above knows what he's talkin' 'bout!
I passed the test.
Still not trust Jim.
