Oh sure, he's a good power forward, there's no doubt. But he needs to improve for the team to move on.

I don't think he will improve. I think he just has to continue doing what he's been doing - Blocking shots, rebounding and getting dunks and layup. He also needs to lead with his energy. Th younger guys on the team should get better.

If Kenyon doesn't improve his rebounding average, the Nuggets wont have a real player who can grab any boards (besides Camby). 7 rebounds a game isn't great for the 4 spot (especially if you have Martin's kind of advantages as far strength and jumping ability). He needs to show more desire as a player; not just flashy highlights.

He is not great but he is better than many PFs and that should be good enough to keep the Nuggets a strong playoff team

Eh, I have a gut feeling the Nuggets will pull a Timberwolves this season and just blow it from lack of desire. I don't see Martin giving it 100% the way he should and I think Carmelo's still too damn green to lead a playoff team... I'm guessing 1st, maybe 2nd round. They'll make the playoffs, but the only way they're getting out of the 1st is if they play us...

I don't, not with Karl at the Helm, it's too soon. They may implode in 2 or 3 seasons, but not now. And I think their defense will improve a lot this season. Not to the point of being title contenders, tho.

Definately not... calling them contenders is too soon, also.

I'd be happy to see a trade for Dunleavy+Fisher for Jameer Nelson and Hedo Turkolgu+fillers. Oh god that would be great. Nelson is going to be special. He would be such a great contrast from Rotten Fish

Yeah, Nelson IS gonna be something... and I think that's why the Magic wont trade him (at least, not for a backup like Fisher with an unproven Dunleavy).

What about a pick? A good pick in the 15-20's like ours could get guys like Leon Powe or diamonds in the rough. That would be intruiging. I am just so fed up I'm willing to get rid of Fisher and a pick for a real PG.

Well, truth is, Derek's a solid PG on most nights. I know you saw a horror movie in Sacramento with him, but I'd say he's worth a place on the roster (if, for nothing else, experience and the knowledge of how to win).

I said the same thing three month ago. But I think the warriors will have to give up atleast a pick or two to get rid of that contract.  |

For a real pg who is going to play behind Baron?, I wouldn't lose a pick for that. That's a position we should fill through free agency. Trade Fish for a player who plays other position or for expirers, but I wouldn't lose a pick just to get rid of his contract.

This trade sounds beautiful but The Magic would want a pick and I'm fine with that. Sure wouyld make it easier to sign guys like Pietrus and Biedrins when it is their time to resign. Also, if Dunleavy wants the money he is asking for, the Magic will no way do it! Hedo is a very good player and Jameer (if happy being a backup for a few years) is a very good PG in many ways! migya make the ring fall on ya |
