Denver all in tanking this next year though right?
that would require moving Gallo and Faried. Chandler is committed long-term to the Nuggets so repaying his loyalty with a trade would be gutless.

but we're going to be terrible next year even if we keep them. Malone is going to need a season to implement his system and Mudiay is the truth, but he's still a rookie and going to need time to develop.

Denver has done a really good sneak rebuild. 2 future studs in nurkic and mudiay. A bunch of young guys (jokic, Joffrey, harris, Barton) that will hopefully turn into good rotation players. And possibly 4 first rounders next year (I know it won't happen). All without "tanking"

Nah

They messed up with the lawson trade

Shoulda waited it out, they could have gotten more

Phoenix got 2 first round picks for dragic and he was expiring in a few months. Lawson has 2 full years on his deal and his contract is a bargain for his production

JR is close to "sprewell'ing" himself

Ainge and Stevens must have a great deal of confidence in him. Dude has talent but I'm not yet 100% sold on him (though I'll probably soften up on him during the season).

Sullinger and/or Olynk still gotta go...

Once the Lee trade is completed and Rozier/Hunter sign their deals we'll have 16 guaranteed contracts, somebody will be on their way out.

Probably at least one of Bradley/Sullinger/Olynyk/Young with Sully & Olynyk being the most likely. I think Ainge would rather trade Sullinger but I think would Olynyk would have more value. Sullinger's on the last year of his deal and has serious weight/conditioning issues

Addition by subtraction. There were rumors after the DUI that they were considering waiving him and eating 26 mil, so the fact that they got anything was a small victory.
