i freaking despise that assclown! if they hire him, i am straight-up done with the organization for the duration of his tenure. . . little joshy needs to pull his head out of his ass-- he's seriously reminding me of another little josh, who recently burned a proud denver franchise to the ground. . . unfortunately, the nuggets' josh can't be fired. . .

The irony of that move is that we'd be returning to George Karl basketball - only we'd be getting George Karl Lite. Not only would they be giving up on the Shaw experiment, but they'd basically be saying that this franchise doesn't know any other way to win besides run n gun.

yep. . . hiring that douche would be just a blatant admission that we aren't even going to TRY to field a team that can play any defense, or compete in the playoffs. . . why not blow it all up and start over instead?

I always thought the Nuggets best weapon would be a run and gun game. Blow people away with the altitude. They just needed to field a good to great run and gun team and never have. Sucking wind in the thin air is not a myth.

Karl just needed another piece or two.

yup. People embarrassed to talk about the Nuggets these days. Been too long since i have been to a game, since i know most of the guys on Altitude.

#Nuggets have agreed to trade C Timofey Mozgov to the Cavaliers according to a league source. The Nuggets will get 2 1st round picks

Two future 1st rounders, of course. This will make rookie Jusuf Nurkic the starting center. #nuggets

Zach Lowe said the Nuggets got a good return for Mozzy. I generally defer to his opinion on all things NBA.

The trade as reported by @WojYahooNBA -- the MEM and OKC picks -- is fantastic return for Denver.

Jusuf Nurkic has played great of late. His last 4 games: 12.8 pts, 8.5 rebs, 3.5 blk, 53.8 FG% #Nuggets

Two firsts. Damn.

Take the money and run.

By the way, there remains no timetable for JaVale McGee's return. Expect JJ Hickson to backup at C. #Nuggets

Great move for the Nuggets. They got high value for Mozzy, and can use those 2 firsts in bigger trades to dump bad contracts or to begin the rebuilding process.

Time to unload Faried before other teams figure out that he's nothing but another grossly overpaid role player. Right now our most valuable asset is Wilson Chandler. Great talent for his contract. I think a team might be willing to take a chance on Gallo, but Javale is practically untradeable without adding a first round pick or more.

can we just trade everybody?

shoulda started a month ago. . .



or three years ago, in buff's opinion. . .

I would like them to keep Lawson.

So what's the end game if you sell, sell, sell? Okafor?
