Denver sux!
Not my opinion, that's what it says at staygilbert.com-
http://www.staygilbert.com/denver.html apparently Warrior fans are worried about him coming to the Nuggets. With the Nuggets woeful backcourt are they looking at signing Gilbert and bringing in a rookie 2? Would they pay Gilbert the max? What do you feel is a reasonable offer.
Also how can you say Mark Jackson is a hall of famer? The league has become more liberal with their assist scoring as time has gone by. Back in the day of Cousy and Big O a assist was a pass that lead directly to a basket. Now if you pass to a guy that pump-fakes, takes a spin dribble, pump-fakes again you get credited with a assist.
Gilbert wouldn't get the max, but he would get something probably starting around $7 million. That is probably more than he should get, but when your a bad team you have to over pay to get guys to come.
As far as Mark Jackson, I never said he should be in the HOF. Karl Malone did. I said he should get consideration.

Thanks once more for answering our questions !
There is a lot of rumors going on about the Nuggets furture players. But what about the coach ? Do you think that the Nuggets will rely on Jeff Bzdelik for more seasons ?
Lamar Odom and Elton Brand got quoted that they have interest in signing with Denver. What do you think about it ? Is this just a gesture to one major player on this years free agnet market or do they really consider the Nuggets as their future team ?
What do you think about Adam Harrington and Jeff Trepagnier the Nuggets newest signings ? What will their impact be ?
It's hard to grade Jeff because he has been going to a gunfight with a dull knife all year. He'll be back next season and will be truly tested since they should have talent.
Odom and Brand are sincere. I talked to them again Saturday. They see how the management is different in Denver and there is a dedication to turn this around. Basically more than anything, money talks and Denver has a lot of it.

Nickoloz Tskitishvili has potential, but do you still see him as "panning out" in the near future?
Rodney White has logged some minutes at the off guard position, and Denver recently went with a big lineup for Hilario/Camby/Howard/White/Williams. Does White have what it takes to play the "supersized 2," or is he better off at the 3?
Denver has cap flexibility heading into Free Agency. Guard play has been the teams weakest play IMO. Is Denver a leading candidate for Arenas, and how much money would you expect Arenas to command?
Thanks,

People in Denver are very hard on Skita. It's unfair. They have to continue to remind themselves that he is just 19 years old. He truly shouldn't be judged until his third season, and I do think he has potential.
As far as Rodney, I think they would rather him play 3. His future at 2 or 3 all depends on the new players brought in.
If Arenas leaves Golden State, it will likely be for Denver.

nene is not a great rebounder yet -- why do you think this is? he's strong, got long arms, and works hard, but somehow only grabs about 6 a game. i can't figure it out. sometimes he gets too involved in battling guys, but he should still be getting more boards than he does. thanks.
That's a good point. I've noticed that sometimes too. But he also gets a lot of charges and blocks shots, so maybe that has an affect. I do agree. He should get more boards.
