No, we already know who our best player is but if LeBron is out there recruiting, who does that here ?? Mike Miller used to be part of our recruitment process but he's know longer here. Can't see our FO being any more successful than most others FOs especially being a smaller market team. Obvious 1st line is Jokic, gotta think many players see him and his play and would want to play with him but not sure if he has the personality to do the recruiting. Murray may be ready in the next few years but he's too young to garner the respect needed from other players. The most realistic candidates to me anyway are Paul Millsap and Gary Harris. Both seem respected in the league and I believe they'd do the best job.

Thoughts ?

All true but I'm not even sure Millsap & Harris have the personality to do that. So it would seem to fall on our front office, but I'll give a nod to Malone because apparently he was key to landing Thomas. Too bad we don't have Denver's own Billups in the front office somewhere.
