Like Cpawfan said Dre and Earl cannot dominate the shots anymore. If the Nuggets trade away Nene or KMart then who can we divide down low against the likes of S.A.?
I don't think that there are any viable options for Denver this offseason at the 2 position, atleast w/o giving up a key to our team. If Denver added say Ray Allen or Paul Pierce then sure they'd be able to score more, but our interior would have some pretty big holes. I don't think that Nene is ready to take over down low by himself, he's not as good offensively or defensively as Kmart right now. Duncan would run wild down low w/o our Big 3.
I think Denver will be more of a challenge with our current bigs intact. Voshon will make a pretty big difference and I believe that Hodge will too. Offense/Defense combo.
S.A. did load up the lane against Melo & Co. and Carmelo does need another viable offensive partner to share the load. But he also needs to get a chance to run the show and take over.
Thinning the frontline is not the way to concrete the SG spot. I still think this team needs to add somebody, but not at the price of Nene or KMart.
