Try actually READING the post--if you sign the guys to one-year contracts, your 2003 cap space is unaffected, OBVIOUSLY.

besides we got a decent team - we should be fun to watch and surprise a few teams.
Whether the Nuggets sign any or all of the guys I have suggested in my post, you're looking at one of the 2-3 ABSOLUTE WORST teams in the league next season.

as for your list, please dont come in here and insult the nuggets when your a complete moron - none of those guys will sign for 1.5 mill for ONE year in DENVER. most of them are looking for much longer/bigger deals.
Any number of the guys on that list of 2002 free agents will end up signing for WAY LESS than they feel they are worth. If Rashard Lewis and Keon Clark can't do any better than $4.5 mil next season, how the hell is Brian Skinner or Mark Blount going to get more than $2 mil? By signing with the remarkably untalented Nuggets, these guys will get minutes, which will give them an opportunity to "showcase their talent," which will presumably allow them to sign much better contracts NEXT summer, when there will be WAY MORE TEAMS with cap space.

Quote:
your basically asking us to either (a) sign guys for much less than they want or (b) fill our roster with marginal crappy players. we might sign blount, but beyond that whats the point?
And Kenny Satterfield, Ryan Bowen, Donnell Harvey, Voshon Lenard (the list goes on and on) are NOT "marginal crappy players"? You're kidding, right?

you also believe the nuggets are trying to make the playoffs this year. you are a short term vision person, we are a long term team. i like kikis method alot better. you actually think winning 25 games instead of 20 is worth it.
Again, TRY ACTUALLY READING SOMEONE'S POST NEXT TIME! I stated that the Nuggets get to be a LITTLE bit more competitive by signing these guys--that they will improve from a 16-66 team to a 21-61 team, which should STILL make them one of the 2-3 WORST teams in the league next season! Keep in mind that, even if you go 0-82, you STILL only have a 25% chance of winning the top overall pick in the lottery!

you REALLY need to rethink this plan and do your homework before posting.
And YOU really need to try reading somebody's post next time before jumping all over their case. And YOU need to not contradict yourself so blatantly--are the Nuggets going to be "a decent team" that will "surprise a few teams," or will they win 20 ballgames? The thing is, if you win 20 ballgames, or 25 ballgames, or 30 ballgames, you are NOT decent, you SUCK! PERIOD!
