Nene wants out of Denver

[Brujesino]

Nuggets fans dont want him back at the price he is going to command as a "Franchise player".

Im not sure how Miami is even a realistic possibility because there is no way Denver will want back a collection of 30+ role players on longterm contracts in Miller, Haslem, & Anthony.

Golden State looks like the ideal destination.

PG - Curry
SG- Monta
SF- Wright
PF- Lee
C- Nene

6th Man - Thompson

That is a good starting 5.

They need some vets on their bench but that team realistically could be a "sleeper" contender much like Memphis was last season. They have a good starting 5 all around, but Monta will have to elevate his game to get them to the next level as their star.

Hell no dont want that we need a defensive center not a bigger,less of a rebounder then Lee.

Warriors would be a nice fit. Don't need to amnesty Biedrins to get him (they've said they aren't going to use it on him, 7 footers are valuable trade bait), can amnesty a guy like Charlie Bell instead. I think it makes them a 7-8 seed if they stay healthy but not sure where they go from there in the future (need to trade Monta for sure imo).

But I think Lacob is an antsy guy. I know he is. So is Jerry West. They’ve been sitting and waiting through this long labor process and they’re just dying to make a move.

The guy they want is Nene. If they can get just enough room to throw a big deal at him, that’s what the Warriors will want to do.

Slicing off Bell’s $4.1M could give them that room to at least make the offer to Nene (or another big man). I don’t know if he’ll take it, but I know the Warriors will want to put it in front of him.

And see what he does in the new world of the NBA, which doesn’t seem a lot different than the old one.

I'm not as down on Lee as most people, think he had a down year adjusting to a new team and will bounce back (but not enough to justify his contract). There's talk of them using amnesty on him as well...would make sense if can get Nene to replace him with a shorter contract. But I think it's unrealistic that owners decide to pay a guy that much money for doing nothing...it's not like Lee is chopped liver, just overpaid by about 2-3 million a year.

MIA or bust.

Tyson Chandler would be a good fit too.

They probably could get Chandler at $10 Million per year knowing that Dallas basically has no power to pay him with the new Luxury Tax.

4/$40 Million? If not bump it up to 4/$45 Million?

I might be wrong but I think he is originally from the Bay Area.

Colorado is an awesome state for the most part.

Great state to visit, but living there isn't a lot of fun. I lived in Colorado Springs for over a year and, while it's gorgeous, the cold really, really sucks.

Meh. I actually think he's a bit overrated.

I'm happy with having the Polish Hammer!

I would prefer that over Nene.Even though we would have 2 centers who are pretty much the same.Only tyson would be a whole lot more confident.

I went to college in the Springs for 4 years, its not that bad. Denver is a lot better but neither are terrible

That would probably only occur if you amnesty Biedrins.

His confidence is shot. But I'd take him in New York for the cheap.

It wasn't horrible. I live in Oregon now and I'll take the Pacific Northwest 10 times out 10 though.

Sorry to report this news Nuggets fans but I had a feeling.

Thats terrible news if true

But I agree with the ones that doesn't think he's worth the max.

Maybe there is a way we can get Kaman from LAC

I think we have 9 mill in cap space.We would probably amnesty charlie bell, i think we would have enough for tyson.Also rumors that portland might amnesty Roy and the Warriors are very interested in him and Roy with the warriors as well.
