“For a Nuggets team at the top of the Western Conference with their best chance in franchise history at a title, losing a rotation player could hurt, but ultimately moving Hyland would open minutes for versatile rookie wing Christian Braun. It would also allow Bruce Brown to play more point guard and not be forced to defend bigger wings who have given him trouble this season.”

i like all 3 of these players.
If /u/BroncoSquatch gets the Duarte call. Damn!
I would clamor for any of those guys.
Give me Terrence Mann!
Im down for all these!
Wait Terance Mann is cheaper than Caruso?
Duarte..no thx
Mann Yes!
Caruso Hell yes!
Damn booth I like all of them.
Calvin Booth we love you.
How the fuck would adding a wing open minutes for Christian Braun??? Let’s be honest: we’re looking to trade away one young talent to take away minutes from another young talent.
Would love Terance Mann, but no way Clippers are trading him for Bones.
They want a PG, but are also in win now mode. Bones is the opposite kind of PG they are looking for to boot.
Please no Duarte
I was pulling for us to draft Duarte in 21. Now that I’ve seen him play I’d rather take Mann. If CB is getting minutes I don’t think we need Caruso
Duarte would be meh. Mann would be nice. Caruso means chip.
Duarte might thrive here actually. I could see him improving within this team. Other two would be better but very expensive
Moore kinda missed on the Lakers report, so I’d take everything he says with a grain of salt.
Jamal/KCP/Bruce/Mann/Braun is an insane backcourt. This would be-by far-the deepest and best defensive backcourt in the NBA.
“Bulls would have to be blown away by offer to deal Caruso”
Bones even makes sense for them?
The Boat Rocker.
As long as it’s not Duarte then I’m happy
I love caruso and mann, but it feels like the nuggets are targeting players who are a good fit alongside jokic, even though whoever we aquire will probably play most/all of their minutes when jokic is on the bench.
Like I think the goal should really be to find somebody who can generate some offense in the non-jokic minutes but also not be an active disaster on defense like bones unfortunately has been.
Terrance Mann Mr. Booth please and thank you
Not sure Duarte would be the piece we need
Never thought of Mann or the kinda fit Bones could be for Clippers
If we got Caruso we would have 2 of the bounciest white dudes ever to play in the league with him and Braun lol
We don’t need a wing, or a guard. We need a back up big. Playoffs should be 5 starters plus Braun, Brown, Vlatko, and a back up big. You then bench mpj n Murray for Brown Braun at 8 min mark. Start the second n 4th with Murray, Brown, mpj, Vlatko Plumlee. Then sub in starters at the 8 min mark maybe leaving Bruce longer for mpj or kcp if he playing well. That’s ideal imo. So we need a back up center unless we believe in nnaji at center more than Vlatko at the 4. I personally don’t.
Duarte is so mid, keep him off my team plz
