Reggie Evans, part 2
Quote:
September 5
"The Nuggets are getting bigger with the re-signing of power forward Reggie Evans. Denver has agreed in principle to sign Evans to a five-year deal that will be signed this week, according to an NBA source. "

Nuggets to re-Sign forward
I guess nobody's surprised by this, right?

No, Thomas and his guys weren't the only ones in the wrong Saturday. The Nuggets have their own issues. But when it was over, at least they weren't crying, at least they weren't punking.
It's all gone in New York now – the pride, the respect, the dignity. This isn't just a bad team; this is a bad act. A once proud franchise and fan base brought to its knees as its pathetic coach makes excuses and whines for mercy.

What he said. Camby, Nene, Martin, Smith, Evans...all these guys deserve to play big minutes next year. That's a great rotation, but someone needs to be moved, probably to bring in more stability in the backcourt.

Re: Reggie Evans, part 2

The one that gets along with Karl the least, Kenyon. The problem is trading him because his value is at an all time low.

Re: Reggie Evans, part 2
Yikes, I would hate that deal if I was a Nugget fan. That's a lot of money for a role player who can't score (except against his former team of course...  ), and who won't even be starting. |

Re: Reggie Evans, part 2
How much of a sacrifice--Martin's worth vs. what Denver can get for him--will the team make to get rid of him?

Re: Reggie Evans, part 2
One thing about the part endora60 quoted confuses me. The quote says Denver got bigger by re-signing Evans. I would take that to mean they are bigger than last season. How do you get bigger by re-signing a player you already had?

Don't know about the other two, but do the Mavs have room for Najera, and would they want him again? I read something a little while back about him wanting very much to go back to Dallas to play. If the Mavs were to want him, and he wants to go to them, would the Nuggets be willing to let him go, thereby solving their own logjam?

Are you suggesting that they cut him or trade him? If trade, what could Dallas give Denver in return?

Re: Reggie Evans, part 2
Signing Evans makes me happy. We lost Elson to the Spurs, and Evans has always been impressive to me since his days with the Sonics. Once JR Smith starts hitting his potential with great play, having all these bigs will be a very nice when going up against other front lines in the NBA. No lay ups defense by the Nuggets.

the mavs would love to take him off our hands. i really dont see this logjam as a problem. JR, Diawara, and DJ (or some other guard we sign) have to hold down the 2 guard spot intially... unless a good trade comes along before the season starts. Kmart will probably get a lot of pre season time to showcase him.
i expect kmart to go to the eastern conference. the mavs would like him... but they havent been willing to give up what denver wants. its not a matter of if denver can trade kmart... its denver waiting to get a good deal. at least the papers say they fielded plenty of offers, and laughed at them all.
contending teams are all going to eventually get into a bidding war for kmart (eastern conference ones) Dallas will be interested... so Miami will jump in to try and make sure Dallas doesnt get him (would be really nice for dallas to start kmart instead of dampier).
Others could get involved... the wizards for example need to improve to become contenders. several eastern conference teams might find themselves in the picture at some point during the season.
What I've been wondering is if we can get a three way trade going with the Lakers. Id like to move Kmart and throw in some other fairly lucrative piece to get back.... Lamar Odom.
I've kinda identified him as a player that would be awesome in a nugget uniform. He's a team guy. He can handle and pass... can run the fast break. Incorporating him into the basketball team could be a challenge. Lamar has a value sure... not somebody the lakers are just going to give up. But people are questioning where he can be the second guy on that team. If he is a good fit.
Plus Mitch & Co are wanting to be way under the cap next summer. If they could get back talent to play with kobe this year and move Lamars 7 | |
