i'm sorry if you don't want to hear this but it's the truth, mpj is not a good fit for the nuggets. He is by far the least active player on the team when it comes to cutting and moving without the ball. He is a defensive liability 4/5 games. And he is just wayyy to streaky a shooter to rely on throughout an entire post season. Not to mention his contract is arguably one of the worst in the league currently for the production he gives you. That being said i like mpj, i think he is an excellent volume shooter who can be a great rebounder at times, and i think trading him to a bottom end team would be beneficial to his career to allow him to develop further by being relied on as a 1st or 2nd option offensively. The Nuggets are in a position many teams would kill to be in, fresh off a chip, they have the best player/ duo in the world. A stud 3rd best in AG who has 110% bought into the culture. And a young bench that looks promising. Not to mention they all ride or die for a good coach in malone. Not going all on in this unknown championship window period would be criminal. F*** picks. Move MPJ and his contract to free up some breathing room to bolster up the second unit. And get a reliable proven guy to play the 3/4.

Nuggets aren’t able to trade the first round picks you listed in either trade because of other picks that have already been traded.
that is not enough for lauri. this is never going to happen other teams can easily outbid us.
Deranged. You all are delusional

It’s as if working up the gall to push for an MPJ trade leads to delusions of MPJ being tradable for almost anyone of value. I suffer from the same delusions. Mikal Bridges and Markkanen are pipe dreams. We can only trade this year’s pick (valued essentially as a 2nd rounder) and 2031 (if unprotected, maybe very valuable). Who is actually the most valuable asset we can get? I’m afraid it’s more like: Colin Sexton, Bruce brown, Deandre Hunter, etc.
