RE: AROUND the NBA: Nuggets front runners for AG - KillerLeft - 03-25-2021 (03-25-2021, 11:10 AM)DanSchwartzgan Wrote: I'm not sure I like him in NO next to Zion any better if the deal is for Ball. Plus, they have a ton of money in Adams already. What don't you like about the fit with Zion? Defense? I think on offense those two would fit like a glove.

Vuc needs to fit next to a defensive four who can rebound like Aaron Gordon ... er, nvmd.

I'd love to be the 3rd team that takes Lauri.

Thanks for that, cow! RE: AROUND the NBA: Nuggets front runners for AG - HanspardShowerVoice - 03-25-2021 Markennen, Zion and Ingram seem like too much overlap ... probably all are natural 4s and none really can play perimeter defense against athletic wings. Who is guarding Kawhi or Jason Tatum out of that group? RE: AROUND the NBA: Nuggets front runners for AG - Scott41theMavs - 03-25-2021 Am I the only one sweating at the idea of the Nuggets - one of our biggest rivals in the standings - substantially improving their talent quotient?

Never knew you felt that way about things! Warms my heart.

Really, Patrick Williams is an ideal fit next to Vuc. Bulls seem to be going all in on a core of Vuc, LaVine and Williams .. though I wonder how far that ultimately gets you.

Who is guarding Kawhi or Jason Tatum out of that group? That's a great point. I know he's not ready right now, and I might be in the minority thinking he ever will be, but I believe Zion's future is at the 5. That's where his athletic gifts will truly cause havoc, imo. Defensively, he has been a disaster there so far, but if it were my team I'd just bite the bullet and declare that. Get the lumps out of the way.

If the rest of the roster can play defense, I'd say it gets you pretty far.

I've been expecting it. The two franchises who absolutely had to do something at the deadline were the Celtics and Nuggets. Celtics had to use their trade exception or else they let Gordon walk for nothing. Denver has to make a move now. They're going to have to pay MPJ a max extension in 2022, and then they'll be tied $100 million to just 3 players and will have no flexibility (unless they're just going to swap out maxes with another max who could potentially be a "better fit" out of desperation like Houston was at the end of Morey's run).

I can see Mavs as stealth Oladipo buyers. |
