Rich Paul ain't letting Malik sign for any reason right now. He's waiting until after the season, because the price will go up. They just paid Jaylen Brown $115M for last 2 years 14/4.5/1.5 on 46/37/65 and decent defense and not to mention that he only started 25 games last season. We all know how will next offseason FA class look like..What do you think when Rich Paul looks at Beasley shooting 47/40/85 and he can jump out the gym? If we keep him, it'll blow my mind. If we keep him, it's gonna be because we trade Gary Harris for being injury prone or somehow we find the way to ship out Barton.
Edit: When i watched Denver Nuggets youtube channel to catch up and all those interviews i found one of Malik when he was asked about his contract, he said that he is focused on basketball only and the reason he signed for Rich Paul is to let him handle other things. Bassically he is betting on himself and will not settle for 12 per year as i think he is worth atm. I think that we should be #1 seed this season, WCF is a real goal, everything above is jackpot but after this season i think that we should have a clear picture on Grant, Monte, Beasley and who is worth to get paid. Having a 12 players deep roster is great but unreal to sustain for more than one season.

If we keep him, it's gonna be because we trade Gary Harris for being injury prone or somehow we find the way to ship out Barton. I think it's simplistic to believe it is guaranteed that Beasley's value will increase between now and next summer. He has to broaden his skillset. He is not like Jaylen Brown, who is quite a bit bigger at 6'7" with a 7' wingspan and has just as much athleticism. Brown has the size to credibly play either SG or SF. Beasley is a SG, period, and has to move beyond being strictly a backup SG to get big money. And stay out of TMZ's library of fistfight videos. In the NBA of 2019, NBA teams pay plenty of attention to intangibles and professionalism, so there's that. |

scooter Yea, but i look at Beasley as a poor man's Buddy Hield. Hield is better shooter and a starter, they both are not good on D, they both can play only as SG, they both are not that good in ball handle and Beasley is a bit more athletic. Hield just signed for 4/94-106. If we repeat the season like we had last year, if our 2nd unit is just as good as last year and if he just keeps with these 47/40/85 numbers he is up for maybe not that kind of a deal like Hield but 4/84 would be offered to him by a young rebuild team easily. I don't think that we will be able to match that. Even with Millsap and Plum of the books, there is Grant question and Monte and Jamal contract kicks etc. As i said, i love Beasley, wish that we could keep him and resign but i doubt that happening with Garris and Barton. If Garris can stay healthy, Barton be a productive in the 2nd unit and by the end of the February deadline MPJ breaks in starting lineup i have no problem trading him. I was afraid of this scenario by the end of last season, that we must chose between Garris/Barton/Beasley at some point or we gonna lose Beasley for nothing.

This team has needed a consolidation trade for like 3 years now.
Itâs just the nature of the nba. You cannot have 8+ good players long term. Itâs impossible to pay and play them all consistently.

Which is why your top 3 guys have to be amazing. Your core better be able to win a title because no matter who you have at 4-12 it doesnât matter enough

If you look at recent history, Beasley and Juancho are likely gone this time next year. None of the guys who failed to reach an extension last year are still with their squad:
Justin Anderson (Hawks)
Willie Cauley-Stein (Kings)
Sam Dekker (Cavaliers)
Jerian Grant (Magic)
Rondae Hollis-Jefferson (Nets)
Stanley Johnson (Pistons)
Tyus Jones (Timberwolves)
Frank Kaminsky (Hornets)
Trey Lyles (Nuggets)
Jarell Martin (Magic)
Emmanuel Mudiay (Knicks)
Kelly Oubre Jr. (Wizards)
Cameron Payne (Bulls)
Bobby Portis (Bulls)
Kristaps Porzingis (Knicks)
Terry Rozier (Celtics)
DâAngelo Russell (Nets)
Delon Wright (Raptors)

thats :
34M$ / year for Ben and Jamal
32.5M$ / year for Pascal
21.5 M$ / year for Hield (up to 26.5 with bonuses)
28.75 M$ / year for Jaylen
19.25 M$ / year for Domantas
16 M$ / year for Dejounte
Well, Jamal will have a lot of work to convince me that was a good deal...

This team has needed a consolidation trade for like 3 years now. I'm not convinced of that. It was the bench, not the starting unit, that consistently lost ground in the playoffs this past spring. A better, more versatile and more experienced bench and the Nuggets would have been in the western conference finals, and if the Warriors had suffered the same injuries they did, quite possibly in the league Finals. Consolidation trades also wind up being failures at least as often as successes (probably more often). Recent examples include OKC trading Oladipo and Sabonis for Paul George; Boston trading Crowder, Thomas, the Nets 2018 first round pick (wound up being the 8th pick), Zizic, and a 2020 Heat 2nd rounder for Kyrie Irving; the 76ers packaging the draft rights to Jayson Tatum and the Lakers 2018 1st rounder (wound up being 10th) for Markelle Fultz; and the 76ers packing Covington, Saric and a couple of small assets for Jimmy Butler. 4 big consolidation trades that all turned out to be failures. I'm fine with where the Nuggets are. Let Beasley and/or Juancho play with something to prove and show they can produce with a little pressure. Teams also lose a free agent from time to time -- it frequently ain't the end of the world. If some other team wants to offer Beasley a $64 mil contract next summer, IMO that's likely to be a mistake. |

Which is why your top 3 guys have to be amazing. Your core better be able to win a title because no matter who you have at 4-12 it doesnât matter enough Hardly any NBA champions over the past 20 years have had 3 amazing players. Look up the rosters and stats for every one of those teams if you want to kill some time. It's true of the one time champions -- like the Raptors, Mavs and Pistons. But it's even true of most of the dynasty teams like the Spurs. For example, the Spurs 2nd highest minutes player in their 2002-03 title year was a 20 year old Parker who averaged 15.5 points/5.3 assists/2.6 rebounds for the season. Most champions do have one fantastic cornerstone player, and fortunately the Nuggets do in Jokic. Popovich's best Spurs teams have always made lots of use of depth. Their 2006-07 championship team had 12 players who over the regular season played at least 56 games and averaged at least 11.7 minutes/game. Their 3rd highest regular season minutes player was Bruce Bowen, who averaged 6.2 points in 30.0 minutes/game. The championship Spurs teams always used depth, and I hope the Nuggets do the same this season. It could be a big advantage over a long season. |

âI respect that we already have guys who have won, almost got to the Western Conference Finals last year,â Porter said. âWeâve got a great team, weâve got great players at my position and he has multiple players who he could be playing, so for me to have to earn it, that just comes with it. It comes with being on a great team. I didnât go to some team that wasnât going to make the playoffs.â MPJ www.denverpost.com/2019/10/22/nuggets-michael-porter-michael-malone-talk-role/I sense that he is impatient, but in a positive way. He want's to deserve and earn a starting job at SF and hopefully he will as the season goes. I really don't wanna watch Barton at SF for 30 minutes and MPJ/Craig sharing 18 minutes. |

The Los Angeles Lakers are 0-1 to start the 2019-20 NBA Season #FucktheLakers Stephen A. Smith kinda cracks me up with his post-game comment that "Lebron didn't look right." Lebron had 18 points/9 rebounds/8 assists. Other than not shooting the ball too well (which I think will be common this season given that a guy his size and age really shouldn't be playing PG), he looked good to me. The Smith's of the world cannot come to grips with the fact that Lebron turns 35 in December and has played 1199 regular season games (averaging 38.6 minutes) and 239 playoff games (averaging 42 minutes). Memo to Stephen -- Lebron is old and his mileage is enormous. He's still an excellent player, but he shouldn't be playing 36 hard minutes (as he did last night) and he's not going to "look" the way he did when he was 28. Sorry to break it to you, ESPN. |
