Troy Daniels seems like a cool guy.
I have Bol, Bol fever - want so badly to see him play

We are watching the beginning of a dynasty. That's why don't get upset if nuggets lose In playoffs this year. It's all about taking steps and getting experience because In 3 years Joki C and Murray will be in their primes and porter and Bol will be just about to hit their primes. The future is bright here In the mile high folks

If Bol Bol gets a good hype during this summer league, I'd sell high on him. I'm just not sure he'll make it. That frame does not give me confidence...

If Bol Bol gets a good hype during this summer league, I'd sell high on him. I'm just not sure he'll make it. That frame does not give me confidence... he has looked very shaky at times but I like that malone is giving him the green light. hes looked far better than I imagined this early. I didnt think he could hang with actual nba players but so far Ive been wrong. I think he was gassed in the 4th quarter last game so his shot selection took a big dip. but if he hits even 2 more of his jumpers, he ends up with 19-20 points on 8-19 shooting and thats not bad. I know it doesnt really work that way but the kid is just getting started. remember, this is bol bol after just 9 college games and a handful of g league games. I hope he (and mpj) have more freedom for the rest of the year. we need them to break out at some point. I do agree about bol's frame, but if he had the physique of giannis he wouldnt have been avaiable at pick 44. or even pick 4. who would you trade him for if you wanted to sell high?

who would you trade him for if you wanted to sell high? Hard to tell without knowing what we manage to resign (hopefully not Plum), but basically whatever position we end up missing that is an OK starter quality on a light contract + a first unprotected or lightly protected. Nobody is getting fooled in offering more based on a small sample during this summer. First reason for selling high is the a big big health/durability concern. Second, I don't see him as a fit. Just hard to imaging him and Jokic on a floor, without Jokic looking like a bear on skates trying to defend on the perimeter. Players like Bol Bol need their teams to adjust to them on both ends, and that's a big risk. Jokic looks like a way safer bet. He looked lost defensively at times, but OK that I'm not taking seriously yet. Hopefully he's a quicker learner than MPJ (not a high standard being set here). I know a lot of people already see him as an all NBA based on these 2 scrimmages, and my stance seems like a blasphemy, but my strong skepticism remains...

Nobody is getting fooled in offering more based on a small sample during this summer. then how do we "sell high"? if no one is offering more than role players and/or bad picks I say keep him and take that chance (albeit small) that he turns out pretty damn good. would you trade bol for any of the following players: (no rumors, just random OK starters that I could think of) robert covington moe harkless mikal bridges derrick white og anunoby kelly olynyk joe harris he does look lost defensively at times. which rookies dont? dont get me wrong, there is a ton of risk. high probability he doesnt turn out amazing. lots of question marks. he is by no means a sure thing. but he was picked at 44. and selling "high" to get an ok starter doenst seem worth it. our best bet is to throw him in a consolidation deal to get a big upgrade for one of our starting 5. otherwise, why bother adding more role players?

It's selling high because we got him cheap and I'm not sure of him being in a league in 3-5 years.
Regarding the list OG and Covington look nice and something we've been looking for a long time... OTOH Olynik is someone I don't like to see, not like see in the Nuggets, but generally don't like to see... I'm also in for using him as a part for a big upgrade.
This is just random talk, anyways not a big load on the Nuggets that we need actively seek a trade for him. Just saying if something comes the FO's way, I wouldn't hold hoping he ends up being an allstar.

Just saying if something comes the FO's way, I wouldn't hold hoping he ends up being an allstar. I agree the odds of him being an all star are low. but trading him for another role player literally does nothing for us. it takes us from a low 50 win team to...still a low 50 win team. we have tons of role players. our only shot is to have someone break out. no one on that list is breaking out. bol could. its a small chance but its better than 0%. now if he is in a deal for say a bradley beal, then im all ears.

NO!!! not even for Tingus Pingus!!! Ok neither would I. That’s the point I was trying to make. Trading Bol for some random role player isn’t a good idea even though it’s very possible Bol doesn’t meet his expectations

Not sure why you think we don't need role players and need a consolidation trade. Consolidate what? These are the players we have for sure under contract next season: Jokic, Gary, Barton, Murray, MPJ, Monte and you can add Bol Bol...
I'm not counting on Cancar and KBD to contribute.
That's basically 6 players + Bol Bol

That's basically 6 players + Bol Bol Cancar can go... i want to see Vonleh, Troy, KBD and Dozier be the "end of the bench" players if the price is aight. and we really need to re-sign Grant and Craig. Millsap hopefully takes a paycut and Plumlee is gonna be waaay to expensive in terms of the decreased cap anyways isnt he?
