I like the Isaiah Todd pick

he has the potential to be an allstar caliber player if he puts it all together

don’t really watch college like that so I have no idea who the Gongzaga guy is and if its a good pick but I wanted Josh Christopher at 15

now they just need a pg…preferably somebody who can shoot

A shooter that can’t defend :stopitslime:


He can defend. He has a big body and is strong. He reminds me of those jazz rotational players like bogdanovic, and Ingles. Also pat mcconough. I know they are white and it might be a lazy comp but physically I'd expect about the same from this dude.

Deni sounds like he will be used as a secondary ball handler

They ain’t keeping all these wings

I actually think. When you look at Denver's rosters in the past when they became good they had multiple big dudes.

Denver Nuggets Franchise Index | Basketball-Reference.com
The Beal like player there is Murray. And kuzma seems himself as Michael Porter Jrs equal and they are equally sized. one of Ruis comp was Millsap. And KCP and will Barton are comparable in role.

Jazz is also another platoon team Position less basketball meaning you can slide guys like Ingles or bogdanovic to the two. Beal like player is Donovan Mitchell.

Sun's is another platoon team with multiple forwards and the Beal like player there is Booker.

So our forwards seem many but they can be slid into the two spot or slid in and play as big points.

As we stand we have a lot of fire power. A lot of spacing because Aaron holiday, Raul, Beal, KCP, kuzma, Bertans, kispert, Thomas bryant are all good three point shooters and deni and Ruis are coming along. Isiah Todd has a very good looking shot . With Russ here I always wondered where we will get spacing from.


Now I'm wondering what lateral moves we can make based on who's names are being thrown around. Dinwiddie, dejounte Murray, DeRozan, Siakam and Myles Turner. I like Thomas Bryant but I keep thinking maybe we should trade him for Myles but I'm not sure.. also going forward I'm wondering whether it's better to keep Kuz or trade him for dinwiddie. Kuz had dialed back as a scorer but he can go off. Maybe shedding Bertans is the way to go.

Also wondering how we'll play trez and gafford in the same lineup cause they are both rotational players. How will we rotate them in..

Another thing to note is Kuz, Trez and KCP are about to enter their prime. Their numbers should now go up.

gafford is the starter and trez is the backup. Not sure why they would be playing together

Another thing about the familiarity. Trez was in the Rico Hines workouts every summer with Thomas Bryant.




You can see Kenyon Martin Jr and Josh Christopher. And Josh is now on their team in Houston. IT is also in the video and was in our squad.

Thomas Bryant was with Kuz when they first started in LA.

Spencer dinwiddie also works out with Rui. So he's also familiar with him. Thats why he mentions him alongside Brad as key guys

That’s crazy cause young Sheed is exactly who he reminds me of when I was watching his tape at least offensively…I’m excited to watch this kids upside, he already has all you want in a modern day big just needs to get stronger and willing to get coached up defensively…Myles turner would be a good comparison…
