Curry only missed 4 games last season. In other words he played in 78 regular season games last season.

Dubs nation held their collective breath every time Curry grimaced or landed awkwardly. those ankles are a ticking time bomb, breh. especially now that he has to assume a even larger ballhandling/playmaking role since we won't let you bring Jack back. you're welcome. :youngsabo:

not to mention that Aussie gimp Bogut can't stay healthy. that celebrated depth is looking mighty :flabbynsick: my dude.

time for some good news

Chris Tomasson:
So here’s what I was told is the Hakeem Olajuwon workout schedule in Houston this summer in one file:

Expected to work out unless there’s a late hitch:

Dwight Howard
Carmelo Anthony
Amare Stoudemire
Joakim Noah
Greg Monroe
Andre Drummond
JaVale McGee
Kenneth Faried

Looking like a solid chance these two will work out but still talking:

Kevin Durant
Serge Ibaka

Hakeem is working on this guy to work out but not yet known if will:

Blake Griffin
Chris Tomasson's post on Oklahoma City Thunder | Latest updates on Sulia

hopefully defense is a focal point of their workout this time.

Everything you covet was lost this summer. Your team is in a city where no top free agent will ever sign to regardless of your playoff run so you'll never get better via free agency. Time to tank, enjoy the bottom.

Never understood the whole "no one wants to play in Denver thing." Remember when the melo trade happened and everyone was saying that gallo and chandler were just gonna leave and go back to ny? And then they both re-signed here for cheap? And they talk about how much they love Denver?

Don't get me wrong it's no la or ny but its not like they're going to play in Iraq. A few players are in it for the clubs and celebrity puss but for the most part if they're going to a good situation for good money they're gonna sign.

and even if Iggy leaves, we have Fournier ready to break out, the cap room to sign a FA and the assets to make a move. that's the benefit of being a well run organization: we have options.

:sitdown:

my dude @BayArea Breez is right, you are a p*ssy. but more specifically, a Lipstick Alley basketball fan. your entire interest in the NBA revolves around player gossip, the club scene and groupie cataloging. the only reason you hate Denver is because it doesn't fit into in your twisted little fantasy world.

stop trying to live vicariously through celebrities you fukking herb. :ld:

Nene and Afflalo were top free agents and reupped with Denver. and like you said, Wil and Gallo signed new deals BEFORE they hit free agency, even though they could have commanded more money in the open market. even McGee, whose value was at all time high after he sonned the shyt out of Bynum and Gasol in the playoffs, didn't show interest to other teams and was only interested in staying in Denver.

When have I brung up the club scene you fakkit? You're the cac with another man in your avi bytch boy. fakkits run in flocks and it's no coincidence you're co-signing a weirdo like the loser in my sig. Your team is shytty and your angry about it. You lost your GM, you lost your best player, you lost the coach responsible for you winning all these years and now you're no different than Minny. Your team has never signed a top notch unrestricted free agent since the franchise started :umad:

Who has been the biggest unrestricted free agent Denver ever signed?

Kmart. But average-good free agents sign every year. We're not gonna get max level free agents but its not like we have to sign d-leaguers and nobodys to fill out the roster. We sign guys who we think we can develop into better players. That's how small market teams do it

Nuggets guard Allen Iverson has interest in opting out of his current contract — then re-signing with Denver this summer for six years.

"That would be our wish," said Iverson's personal manager, Gary Moore.

If this happens, Iverson likely will end his illustrious career in powder blue.

"We love Denver," Moore said. "We love the opportunity of winning a championship here. We love everything about the Nuggets, from the organization to the fans."

Iverson, 32, makes $19 million this season and is scheduled to make $20 million next season, the final year of a four-year deal worth $76.7 million.

If he does try to renegotiate, one catch would be an NBA rule that affects contracts four years or longer, which extend past a player's 36th birthday. As it is stated in the NBA's collective bargaining agreement: "Salary payable for seasons beginning after the player turns 36 is treated as deferred compensation in the seasons before the player turns 36 (and is therefore counted against the salary cap in those seasons)."

Asked about finishing his career in Denver, Iverson told The Denver Post in October: "I'd rather be here. But, I mean, I'm going to do what's right for me. And that's just as far as being able to win a championship."

I'm a BIG Hickson fan. dude is a banger and double-double machine. he has value in this league and getting him at a discount only increases that value.

well done FO. :ehh:

That makes faried, hickson, mcgee, Randolph, Arthur, and maybe mozgov. It'll be interesting to see whether they just keep it like that and make em compete for minutes or try to make a trade for a SG. Guess it depends on how good they think Fournier, J-Ham & green can hold it down

breh, I'm just relieved this ends the Monta Ellis rumors. I'm good with standing pat and seeing what's available by the trade deadline.

I like Hickson in the starting lineup next to McGee, moving Faried to the bench.
