    Ball's in Morey's court now. I for one, am intrigued to see who he targets in the next few days.

    I think they believe they still have a chance to compete.

    Like i said, they don't seem interested in rebuilding, but instead are reloading. They're still a playoff team with the new guys coming in..

    I'm guessing Denver's price for Nene is, first and fore most, taking Al Harrington's contract off their hands. Given the length of that thing, I don't think Morey wants it in his hands or being inserted into his team's cap picture, especially given the CBA situation.

    Playoffs supposedly worth $1M profit per game to teams in it.

    I like Nene but I think Morey'd be better off trying to get a younger C out there... Not that 28 is old but there are other options.

    No it's not. For the Ball to be in Morey's court now, there would have to be someone available, meaning someone else is "saying yeah maybe what will you give us."

    No one is seemingly available right now, so the ball is not in his court.

    I agree, get a young, athletic big that is interested in playing d and can be a dominant force in the paint. In other words, not nene.

    Well I guess that means Nene will be on the Roster by Friday.
