OT: Daily Thoughts

If we got lucky and got a high enough draft pick, I would take Parker over Randle and Wiggins. Randle is basically Zach Randolph and will get identical production.

Wiggins is so raw and I hate that everyone compares him to Lebron James. I also don't like his "Maple Jordan" nickname, way too much pressure to put on a kid.

The game comes way too easy for Parker, it's almost like he's bored and still getting 20/10.

mcgee, gallinari

not 3-10.

anybody here regret trading nene for mcgee? been watching a few wizards games and it struck me how well nene is still playing. would he have had this success in the nuggets offense? i don't know, but assuming the knicks keep losing, and we're prying for a bigman in the draft, how long will mcgee be here?

Nene is playing well this week, but he has been up to his same way in Washington as he was in Denver, taking weeks of not playing real hard, nursing injuries, and such. The mistake was not the trade, but in giving McGee that long of a contract.

Does anyone wonder how Shaw would go if he had last season's roster?

I will say I had a thought if we should have gotten Brett Brown but Shaw's ability to develop players is evident.

Cavs are shopping dion waiters, would you be interested in having him play for denver? If so what would be a potential deal?

tstrick33 · Post #27 » by **tstrick33** » Wed Nov 27, 2013 11:08 pm

I would trade Gallo/Faried/2015 1st round pick.

For

Waiters/Varejao/2014 1st round pick.

Is dion waiters worth shopping for?

That is terrible for the Nuggets, Waiters is not a good player, Varejao is always injured, and Gallo + Faried will help move that pick out of the lotto in the Eastern Conference.

Awful trade.

Another Nuggets win, and Knicks loss, not a bad way to head into thanksgiving.

i feel like this team is out-executing the opposition now, and they're understanding it and getting better at it every night....whereas last season they seemed to simply out-hustle & outwork the other team.

not that the latter is bad in the regular season, just that it only goes so far in the playoffs given that every team is going 100% at that point.

Melo returning to denver in 2 days, will he be receiving boos and 'who is melo' chants like last time? Can't wait for this game! I always love facing melo!

Its amazing watching these guys play with what seems like a coaching system with structure and focus. I'm loving it. I get the feeling every one of our guys is buying into Shaws system. Ty looks like he's benefitting the most. Can't wait for the Knicks game, won't be able to watch live tho

Assuming the likely hood of drafting one of the SGs/SFs, do we offer Hamilton an extension before/after the season ends?

Post #36 » by **The Rebel** » Thu Nov 28, 2013 5:50 pm

With Hamilton coming off his rookie deal they are not allowed to negotiate an extension with him between Oct 31st and July 1st.

It really is too bad that only a few of us saw what he would become, and he is still getting better every week, the Nuggets had the damn option for him.

Wow that sucks.

We haven't had an instant (efficient) scoring spark off the bench since JR Smith, and when we finally have one it will probably be only for one season.

Kyle Korver for like six years...
Jan Vesely (because he's native)

Better SG than Foye.

I haven't been keeping up with every team this season but interestingly enough we are now the 6th seed. If the playoffs started today, for some reason I would be okay with playing OKC or LAC in the first round.

Shaw is doing a good job all things considered.
