The future isn't looking bright, YET

[Joker]

How is that when we have J. Smith, J. Childress, Acie, Marvin, Horford, and JJ.

Here's the problem

Marvin has All Star potenial and we could lose him for nothing as a FA....

JJ with this current squad might want a big contract(Kobe) in two years from now....

Don't forget about Acie contract and Horford max deal in three years.

He would be cap tied like Denver and New York without NY fanbase that always sellout the garden. Which means we can't sign any FA's.

That isn't a good sign for a team that best season in the last 9 years with 37 wins in the weakern conference.

We need to make some moves.

Bibby + Marvin for Melo + Steven Hunter

This give use the legit number 1 offensive option and lets JJ does he role as a the best all around compliemnary player in the NBA.

Horford can play the role that he likes best and Acie can start with Melo in the offense.

Name one time Melo has missed the playoffs or a time where Melo has had a losing record.

He's a winner, he is not a leader but he is a winner. Horford is a leader and if Avery comes to Atlanta that gives us guidence. Not only that but JJ minutes will become reasonable since they don't need JJ to play the whole game to win a game.

This is the lineup I like for the future

PG: Acie/Sign Boykins/Speedy

SG: JJ/West

SF: Melo/JChillz

PF: Horford/J. Smith in a Ginobili role/Solo

C: Hunter/Andersen/Zaza

It make us better at everything but defense, but with Melo and JJ being our offense, Horford being our post presence, and Josh Smith being our different maker playing 34-36 mins a game. Were one of the best teams in the NBA and setup for a titles in the next 10 years. Melo is the best scorer in the NBA outside of Kobe. J. Smith can help us off the bench more then as a starter, and still play the same amount of minutes. Acie can start with Melo/JJ/Horf better then with JJ/Marvin/Horf/Smoove.

Marvin and an ending contract will not net us Melo. Maybe Iverson but not Melo.

Dude you really dont believe in jj, but you believe in melo. Melo without iverson is a complete failure. The guy is a chucker and played worse in the playoffs than jj. This trade will mess up our future. Id rather just groom acie and get a legit center. Other than that i dont see why we need to change anything. And jj will not ask for kobe money are you kidding me, your just dilusional lol..

um if u haven't noticed Iverson has only been there less than 2 years.Melo has led Denver to the playoffs every year since he's been there,and before him they had a playoff drought as well.Denver is nobody without Carmelo.

[Supporter]

then why are we trying to get him if denver is obviously nothing without him...

[Cwell]

I don't know. I didn't propose that stupid trade.

[dalamchops]

how do people still think MW has All-Star potential. This guy has the exact same game since they day he came into the league. oh wait, he doesn't even attempt 3pters anymore.

Take off your Marvin hater goggles, Marvin has All Star potenial, just because your blinded by thoughts of CP3 and Deron doesn't mean it's not there. Denver is in the same sitution as Indiana was a few years ago. The fanbase is dememishing and no chance to bring any other players in because of cap issues. Their about to be over the luxury tax and have no income coming in. Iverson is a bigger ticket then Melo and Melo with his actions is alienating the fanbase in Denver.

They have no cap room and a their a team that was cap wise KILLED by Kiki Vandeweghe. No GM will touch Nene or Kenyon Martin and A.I. isn't someone who is in high demand unless you want nothing in return but late 1st round draft picks. Melo is alienating your fanbase and isn't on the level of Bron or Wade in the eyes of Denver front management. With time his stock is going to go down and you will get nothing in return. Your not getting anything like the Celtics got for KG. The T'Wolves didn't want to get cheaper, they wanted to start over. Denver wants to get cheaper and get a potenial star with a clean image to change the fanbase feeling about the current team. This isn't NBA 2k8, people actually do this as a career, and making a profit is ONLY second to winning championship which usually hand in hand with making a profit. Now I know you don't like Marvin but you have to move on from that, fact is he has a lot of talent, he came in a project and now he is coming into his own. He still has away to go, but he is much better then JJ was a the same stage and JJ was on a MUCH better team with a true PG.

Bibby

AI

Marvin

Martin/Nene

Camby

That lineup is a not bad lineup and can still get them in the playoffs but it's not likely being the West is so good. In fact with Portland being a playoff team next season means Denver time is up even with Melo and A.I. This might be the highest Melo stock is till he becomes a FA in three years. They could get a potenial star for cheap and Bibby expiring will get them cap relief which is the most attractive thing. That is very important for Denver. This might not be a move that would fly with the fantasy heads and NBA 2k8 fans but it's works with the Nuggets and their future. Melo is to be honest, DeAngelo Hall and would fit with a team with a leader and he can just play his role. The Hawks are a perfect fit.

As for J. Smith for Melo, not happening, there likely to make the same, no cap relief, in fact it's doesn't bring fans to the arena. It's makes no sense for the Nuggets.

Melo isn't a chucker, Melo is ball stopper but so is JJ, Bibby, and this system is made for ball stoppers. Melo isn't any worst at chucking then Bibby and is much better at it. Melo isn't a leader, he plays on a team with no discipline and he's better at just playing a role then being the leader...see: Team USA. How would this trade mess up our future, with the money issues as I said earlier the future isn't so bright. Acie will be a good player with Melo a lot quicker then with our current squad. He can just play a role and have a Rando affect on the team. How will JJ not, if were in the playoffs next season and Larry Hughes can get huge money, what can JJ get then, lets be real here. Were not a championship team either so him signing for less might not as attractive of a option.

Denver isn't nothing without Melo, their a much different team then they were a couple years ago. They had a bench, Andre Miller, but with a less talented starters but the starters now just don't play as a team, (THINK Hawks with SAR, Robinson, and Terry.)

Melo impact was bigger then, then it is now. Which was shocking to Denver(fans and I'm guessing front office as well.)

WOW, this post proves you aren't a credible basketball head. He sucked badly his rookie season. He was like upgraded rookie Josh Smith. He couldn't do much of anything, and if he did, he was half good at it. He played good this season. The playoffs were disapointing but he lost his 3 option when Bibby came and became the 4th option fighting with Al and Bibby for shots.

He was above average and showed why he was selected so high, maybe not over Paul or Deron but at least why he was selected so high.

Marvin hasn't justified being the number two pick in the draft. Nor has he shown he has all star potential. Big Al has played one season and has shown far more potential than Marvin. Chris Paul and Deron Williams will always be better players than him. All he can try to do is find a role on a team and help them win. He won't be the number one option but he can be a solid role player.

As for his trade value, I hope the GM's around the league view him as you do. We could get a very big piece for a player with as much potential as you are giving Marvin.
