Wow, we likely could have had him for even cheaper. Very disappointed in this. Really hoping we get Anthony, or Love now.
The west will have every single good player in the NBA next year damn. Serge ibaka probably going to be an all star again at this point. Hell Dwight has a shot now!
Hey good on him getting his Money. I just wonder what Denver is planning to do with Faried. I dont think he would be part of their plans anymore. Maybe Morey could find away to get Denver involved in a 3 team trade to help facilitate Melo here. Dont know how and if it could work, just a thought.
Looks like it's either Melo or ride it out till December/trade deadline. Completely fine with that. Fill the roster with that TPE and the BAE and this team is easily a 60 win team. We need big man depth that can be gotten with the TPE (PPat, Kufos, Aldrich + OKC 2018) and a back up PG or wingman with the BAE. There are plenty of pretty good FA and the money is drying out so we should be able to fill out the roster with so good depth.
Good move for the Nuggs, I think they will surprise a lot of people next year, depending on where Hayward ends up, they could be a 5/6 seed I was trying to compile the all-star team for the east next season and had a really hard time Denver has been trying to move Faried for a couple years now, they've never found a taker. He is basically Montrezl Harrel with better rebounding
Why no contenders though? Looking to get paid by LOSERS! Millsap had discussions with the Sacramento Kings, Phoenix Suns and Atlanta Hawks in free agency, but was lured by the young core of the Nuggets. https://sports.yahoo.com/sources-paul-millsap-agrees-90m-deal-nuggets-030627476.html
I don't mind, the cavs pretty much swept anyway and will continue to do so. Let the west take down the snakes instead.
ridiculous sentiment, why do sports fans expect millionaire athletes to to take less $ to help out billionaire owners?
Its funny how ppl make excuses for players caring more about the money than winning when in the rest of the world ppl sometimes making 40k a year turn down jobs that offer 50k just to be in a better job. Odd double standard.
The contract is crazy but I'm happy for Millsap. I like him and the Nuggets are definitely a playoff team.
