TBD on Murray. If he’s 23 playoff Murray, he’ll have value. If he’s 24 playoff Murray, he’ll be untradeable
I don't disagree with this but who would want him and could you improve the team with the salaries coming back?

Orlando could use him but the proposal would probably be Suggs and Isaac for Murray. Would Orlando even give up Suggs for him?

Toronto would probably be interested but anybody they offered would make Denver worse.

Orlando was the exact team I’ve been thinking. I think if they’re gonna trade Murray and MPJ it would be smarter to try and just break them up into a couple of smaller contracts each.

Like Murray for Suggs, goga, TdS and maybe a pick or two, depending on where Murray’s value is after the season.

And MPJ to Indy for Obi, Mathurin and Jerace Walker, all guys they won’t be able to pay because they need to pay turner.

That would give them flexibility and a lot of different sized but still good value contracts to use if a star becomes available next trade deadline or offseason. I’d rather do that than just swap those guys for other max guys that are neutral or negative value.
