I mean they have some pieces that they can move (Nene, Watson being the first two that pop to mind).
I don't want to be the downer, but it's definitely something that needs to be considered as well as the possibility of trading the pick while the value is high if we can get some good building pieces in return.

I think Nene is being heavily overrated as a trade asset. Big injury and he needs to be signed next summer with no great way to evaluate his worth. I guess some team might take a chance that he'll come relatively cheaply and make a great recovery and then develop as a player. But if somebody wants to give him a contract, why not go after him as a free agent? Cap issues I guess. I just don't see it.
They probably will look to improve their team through trade but will they find any significant upgrade? Hard to say.
If they don't win the division, which is obviously heavily related to Minnesota's play, I don't think they're in the playoff. If they win their division, I think we still get a pick 20 and under. Not a bad place for us to be.

Camby is getting pins put in his hand/finger. No timeline for a return yet.

Re: The Nuggets Watch
We have to hope that Melo can make them a 30 win team. Below that and we're at risk of losing the pick.

I think they can be in the 8-12 pick range.

It's a possibility. Martin hasn't been the same player in Denver as he was in Jersey. Kidd-effect maybe. Rumours are swirling that they want to trade Watson for Flip Murray, which would give them a shooter but a backcourt of Miller/Murray would be very hot and cold.
Imagine we got the 6th pick?
 How greedy are we!

Re: The Nuggets Watch
Out for the season? I wouldn't put it past him but I figure he'll try like hell to get back before the All-Star game.

There is NO way any player would be out for that long due to a broken finger, unless his name is Vince Carter.
