Not really no. Nurkic has more upside and intangibles and is approaching them rather quickly. Really not a good trade for Denver at all unless there was some chemistry issues behind the scenes.

I'm sorry, a premium position player that led the Nuggets to, less than mediocrity. Ain't like he's an All-Star or anything.
As long as Faried and Lawson are gone, I don't care who they keep/get rid of.
Does anyone want to coach the Nuggets, except the one guy that the organization doesn't want to hire?
Best news I've heard all season. Make it happen Denver.
Hunt did the best possible coaching job he could have with the players the rest of the season when Shaw was fired, and the organization still doesn't want to hire him.
Shaw sucks and he's gone thank god - unfortunately, we're still stuck with these clowns that play for the organization like Faried and Lawson.
Players respected Shaw as a coach in playoff winning organizations. Kobe pushed hard for the guy. He turned out to be a terrible Head Coach, but he had the worst possible group of clowns playing for...
The minute there's adversity with Hunt, and there's adversity with every coach in every system at some point, the inmates have proven they aren't resilient enough to try and play through adversity....
Once Denver hires a coach their next step needs to be putting a new blueprint on the top of the roster - get rid of Lawson, trade Faried and get what you can, and move anyone else who refuse to do...
Do you find Chandler's quote about being tough to fight together when you're set up for failure a little ironic, considering at the time they actually were in the midst of the fight (for the...
I think it's just more obvious. These "professionals" choose to quit on their head coach simply because they don't like him, meanwhile the organization is paying them millions to act like...
They're 11.5 games out with 15 games remaining. If they make the playoffs it might possibly be the greatest 15 game stretch/collapse in NBA history.
Speculation from within the organization that the front office is furious at the turnaround, and the players for "choosing" when to play and when to not play. More than like 2 or 3 of the main...
Gallo would be the only guy I would consider keeping around. Lawson has proven time after time that he isn't the guy this team needs to lead them. Faried has some good trade value and they could...
This is a worse case scenario, IMO.
This clown Hunt might just get these guys to play well enough to make the idiot ownership think this team might have a chance, and moving forward there won't be...
Shaw was bad. He had no coaching experience at any level. There are reasons why he has gone into the offseason as a very good coaching candidate the last 5 years and failed to land a job. I'm...
He failed. The players on this team failed too. Unfortunately we can't fire all of them as well.
Shaw didn't fail, Kroenke and the front office failed him. If they honestly hired a coach with no head coaching experience to coach that roster and expected him to win, than Denver must have the...
Denver played a frenetic, up tempo pace with probably 10-20 more possessions than an average San Antonio game. That's why spurs give each more than their average. Their able to play Denvers game, and...
The spurs play defense, something completely foreign to the current roster of the Denver nuggets.
they also take their profession seriously, another thing completely foreign to the current roster of...
I don't think so. I lol'ed when I saw that. The guy has no credability in the basketball circle, and I'm pretty sure no reasonable basketball fan is going to disagree with what Garnett said.
Correct - we're still stuck with managament, and even worse, Kroenke's, which is why this is one big mess.
Interesting to hear from The Drive guests on how Denver Nuggets have been a joke around...
You were expecting a coach with absolutley no head coaching experience at any level to come in and coach a bunch of players that didn't fit what he knows? I would think that's hard. I would think...
hopefully the next coach comes in and gets rid of all these bums. 100% turnover. What a garbage roster of players.
