How can Nuggets get Ben without giving up Murray?

Will need to be multi team

They can’t even with multi team. Green, Gordon, and Barton are ineligible to be traded before December 15. So it literally could only be Murray or jokic

If the Nuggets trade their entire roster except Jokic, Murray, and the ineligible to be traded guys (Gordon, Barton, and Green) they have $33m in salary so they could in theory do it. That's 10 guys they have to move out whether it's to the Sixers or some other team to fit Simmons. Not happening.

If it's the Nuggets before December, it has to start with Murray or Jokic. Period.

It has to be Murray right? Because if it is MPJ, Harris is by far the worst investment the Sixers ever made.

He’s literally useless then.

I’d also prefer Murray but i wouldnt mind MPJ. I think he’s underrated.

What matters if it’s good for the team, than making the move look good.

Another thing is once you get MPJ, you can ship Tobi for a more defensive wing who can shoot. Whereas some teams may value a scorer over a role player.

I think we trade Tobi for sexton or CJ. If we get Murray.

I'd love Nance. Just think of we trade Tobi we need to get some scoring back. Murray/MPJ and Jo isn't enough.

You guys it can’t be mpj unless it’s he and Murray or he and jokic literally. They are the only two guys who are tradeable on the entire team to match salary, and like stated above if they tried doing it without they would have to literally trade 10 players

If contracts weren't a factor, some people would prefer Porter over Murray? I think that's like preferring Markkenan over Beal.

Even though I worry about Murray's Achilles, I'd still prefer him over MPJ.

Camp opens in 2 days. I can't see Morey rushing anything, but it'll be interesting to see if other teams start getting a sense of urgency and up their offers.

I could see something getting finalized this weekend.
