Is Morey's package for Denver better than the Knicks' or Nets'?

Why would the Nuggets want Yao Ming?

 

Assid,

If you are Denver, maybe you want to get rid of more than just Anderson's contract, but Nene's too....or Billups....

And force another team to pay significant Lux tax.....

There is no way Les does that...I am not sure the Nyets would either, but he seems more like Cuban than Alexander.

As for what the team has been waiting for, not sure...Melo is good, but he is not a winner, IMO....he is a ball and stat hog.....

I would take the shot, and hope that he has just not matured yet.....but only for the right price.

We could absorb Billups " bad " contract as well.

Houston gets
Carmelo Anthony
Chauncey Billups

Denver gets
Brooks
Battier
Patterson
Hill
Hayes
Jeffries
Harris
Johnson
draft picks

In a seperate deal we could absorb Anderson's contract using Ariza's trade exception.

Billups/Lowry
Lee/Taylor
Melo/Budinger
Scola/Anderson
Yao/Miller

 

That reduces the Nuggets payroll by 9.5 million.

 

Are our potential deals better than what the Bulls and Magic can offer? I ask because another writer added those 2 teams to the mix.

 

i dont think there is ne way we get him for just those players .. we would have to give them our picks .. and thrwo in either brooks or martin ..

 

I guess Kevin Martin pulled a Vernon Maxwell and said screw this I'm getting ou of this madness!

 

LOL. early retirement FTW.

 

....except Denver can't go over the player # cap in a trade so you would have to put another 5 or 6 guys in that trade from Denver to make that work out. Denver can't absorb 6 extra guys in a trade - that would give them 20 players under contract which is not legal.

Remember the CBA rules young grasshopper...

 

That rule doesn't apply during the off-season.

 

That would gut our front court depth, and who in the hell is Anderson?

 

^ Just make em switch uni's.

 

Ummmm.....if they don't have an all star quality big man, then what is dirk? I know you could argue that since he can play the wing and has skills to play a wing, he actually is a PF who averages over 8 rebounds a game for his career?

 

Are u saying yao is a better player than dirk?

 

I dont understand your logic on how Melo is not a winner?

He won a national championship in college, he won an Olympic gold medal for the US and took his team to the WCF. He actually put the Nuggets back on the NBA map ever since he joined them back in 03'. Please explain how this guy is not a winner?

You talk about Melo being overrated but look what you do to half the Rockets I.E. Budinger and Wafer.

Do you think LeBron or Wade could lead that Denver team farther than Carmelo did? I dont think so.

 

Take note, these are words of Wisdom!

 

This is Anderson, a shot blocking machine, nothing like our former Anderson.

Yes he is.

Also Melo wants to play with an all star caliber center and he knows that's what you have to have to win in this league. It's not coincidence that the teams that are being mentioned in the Melo sweepstakes are Orlando, New Jersey and Houston, all that have all star or near all star calibar centers on their rosters.

Mavricks can't touch our roster from top to bottom and they have nothing to offer the Nuggets.

 

Dude dont be such a homer. Dirk > Yao.
