SO if he's voted in as a starter for the East? They just skip him?

Hot damn, the Spurs take three days off and the world goes to shit!

There's no way you can trade two 20's for a low lottery pick in this draft. This draft is deep, but the talent drops off around pick 18 or so. You might be able to trade two 20's for like pick 15 or 16, but even that I wouldn't count on.

The question should be if will those votes be transfered over to the west or will he have to be selected by the coaches.

Tony's shot at another ASG just dropped.

larry brown was giving king advise NICE MOVE LARRY

Wow. Denver's hurry-up offense just upgraded their slowest piece for one of the quickest players in NBA history.

No one's going to be able to keep up with them. This will be fun to watch.

Yeah, they are going to be scary. 110 points per game before AI and with a slow point guard leading the way?

And now they'll be able to press fullcourt like the old Sonics used to do so well. Karl has a short life span as a coach but if the pieces fall together right, they are going to be a power.

I think ESPN said that it was.

Yeah but if they don't get number one, they aren't going to be able to trade for it. In this draft, picks 2 through 5 look about the same value.

wow...if this is indicative of anything, it's that no one really gave a rat's ass about iverson.

now with only 1 ball in denver, how do you keep 3 high volume shooters happy especially one chasing his first scoring title? it's only a matter of time before that team implodes. i'm sure camby will start moaning about not having enough touches too. it'll be fun to see how this chemistry experiment plays out.

So wait, the moderator of this forum/owner can't even post in the right section?

Interesting...

How exactly does this have anything to do with the Spurs?

everything in denver land will be fine if denver is winning
when denver is not winning and everyone is back there will be problems

The Nuggets just moved into contention for the West. If you fail to see how that doesn't affect the Spurs, then you're dumber than somebody who posts about having fantasies about mowing another Spurstalker's lawn.

And how do you moderate an owner?

Carmelo didn't have much trouble sharing the ball and getting his touches playing with Team USA. He actually handled it better than Wade and LeBron did.

This trade is either going to make the Nuggets a huge force ... or it could blow up in their face. We'll see but this isn't good news for the Spurs. AI is the one player that they've never been able to slow down. Now he comes West.

Because it improves Denver into a contender and it's major NBA news. All major news is posted here.

Follow the bread crumbs.

MELO PUBLICALLY WANTED AI
HE GAVE HIS STAMP OF APPROVERAL
JAMES AND WADE ARE THE ONES THAT WANTED the BALL MORE IN THE GAMES
BUT LETS BLAME MELO FOR THAT TO BECAUSE JAMES IS PERFECT :downspin:

Iverson no longer has the excuse of having crappy players around him except having to share with another ball hog. I will change my mind about him if he is able to make Denver considerably better.

Philly absolutely had to go in the tank this year. Their pick would go over to GSW if they made the playoffs -- it's top 15 protected and if they keep it, they only owe $1 million.

The draft picks they get from Denver are Denver's and Dallas', so one will be early 20s, the other late 20s with a slim chance Denver doesn't make the playoffs and the better of the two gets nicer.

Why is everybody forgoing the triumphant return of the Sixers other prodigal son Joe Smith?

DUCKS.....WHY ARE YOU YELLING?

:p:

Joe Smith is still in the league?
