  1. In ideal universe you trade Murray for 2-3 pieces and bet on PWat to be no2. BUT YOU CAN'T PAY PWAT with Murray on the team, he will do exactly 0 and you will pay him 25 MIL? come on. But it's already gone this option, NOBODY wants Murray without at least few picks attached to him. And THJ is already gone. We are not running it back even if we run it back. THJ already gone, he gave us like 4-6 wins and if we gave him the ball to shoot it we might have been in the second round.

  3. Losing Watson would suck (they missed him alot in playoffs along with AG health issues as they’re clearly their 2 best defenders/athletes), but getting back a player like Tyson or Hollins (especially with Jaquez Jr) would def help soften the blow.

    I like Cam Spencer too. Wanted my Pacers to draft him in 2nd round, but instead we moronically drafted his UConn PG teammate instead.

  4. jaime jaquez or Ryan rollins would fit the definition of high level player. i think we should still sign pwat to a 3 year 70 with 3rd year team option with the salary backloaded in case he doesn't turn into a star and is just a starter once cam's contract is up

  7. Rollins is the only guy that moves the needle for me. Ty Jerome? 😂 Uh no.

    And I don’t think AG deleting his IG account is insignificant. Could be something there; trade wise he still makes the most sense out of the starters.

  12. As a neutral outsider (Bulls fan), I’m really glad I checked out you guys at DNVR Nuggets. I find myself now listening more often to your pods than CHGO Bulls just because of the witty banter and repartee. (Maybe I subconsciously want to move to Denver lol?) Keep up the great work

  14. Has PWat proven himself in a playoffs run? Better yet, has he proven himself for an entire season? We are jumping the gun here, again, same we did with CB, at least CB played really well for an entire season, $15m would be more than enough for him though.

    What PWat has done? Played well for a month without jok? At least we know Jok and CB have a great chemistry, which is pre requisite to succeed in this team.

    This PWat situation has blown waaaay out of proportion, proving clutch is great at what they do. I love pwat, btw, but at this point, is it even worth it?

  15. Yugoslavia (ex) National Basketball Team was always preparing in Slovenia, that's was tradition before goimg on international tournaments and beat USA and USSR. Positionless basketball you are enjoying now was created by Yugoslavian coaches (bunch of hall of famers) while preparing in Slovenia, Some of best coaches in the history of the game brainstorm at that cult bball place. so don't laugh when you saying *oh they prepare in Slovenia ", you look like ignorants and i know you're not that, you know better Pozdrav Braćo.

  16. the problem that can't be solved unless you trade Murray is that cheap point guards who can handle the ball can't guard. So if you put Murray on the floor (=worst defender in the league, g-leaguers from MIN where taking turns on him, like in some kind of adult video) with said on ball PG, now you have Murray + PG who is likely liable on defense and Jok who can't cover for them. Jokic is a decent defender as long as you keep your guy in front of you, once you have two simple entries into this defense, Jok becomes totally useless.

  18. No thanks to any Bucks trade even if Bucks is willing to include Ryan Rollins (which they’re most likely not going to anyways). Ryan Rollins is essentially a 1 yr rental if the Nuggets trade Watson for Rollins and a 1st. He has a player option next year and will 100% opt out of it. And we’ll be back to the same situation again except he will be able to choose a team where the money is at and there’s ABSOLUTELY nothing Nuggets can do about it. You can’t even trade him for assets at the February deadline because teams with cap space can just sign him outright

  19. No thanks if we’re trading Watson for AJ Green. I would be down if we can somehow trade CB for AJ Green. That makes a lot more sense imo. And I don’t even think that’s unrealistic. AJ is a quality role player but I wouldn’t say he’s a “high level player”. Even though he started majority of games on the Bucks, I do not view him as the starting caliber player on a championship contending team. Nuggets should not just settle for guys like AJ Green or Jaime Jaquez for Watson. I would be fine with Ryan Rollins if only he has more years left on his rookie deal…….. Jaime is also on an expiring contract so value wise it’s not good as well.

  20. If my Nets choose not to extend their best player, maybe Michael Porter Junior could go back to the Nuggets with the Nets reacquiring Cam Johnson & Watson. Witty Banter? Love it!

  21. Cam Spencer and Walter Clayton would be cheap and great adds to the ball handling depth. And Denver could get draft assets with a package like that.
