according to ESPN radio (Ric Bucher) the deal is getting serious.... Nene Linas Kleiza JR Smith Eduardo Najera Future 2nd round pick for Ron Artest Mike Bibby Denver's owner has stated that he's 100% willing to pay more luxury tax for a better team.
Wow the West will be stacked even more if this deal gets done. Dallas will almost be forced to make a deal to keep up with the rest. Who comes off the bench though? The Nuggets could go with either of these two lineups: PG - Bibby SG - AI SF - Melo PF - Artest C - Camby 6th - KMART PG - Bibby SG - AI SF - Melo PF - KMART C - Camby 6th - Artest PG - AI SG - Artest SF - Melo PF - KMART C - Camby 6th - Bibby
This is confirmed bull shit From a Nuggets insider this evening, the Nuggets have had no discussions with Sac that involve Bibby and they have zero interest in him
What a horrible trade for the Nuggets. Yeah, what they need is 2 more people who want more shots than they're currently getting. And why would SAC do this? They finally get everyone healthy and are playing well.

Karl would end up in a nut house after coaching those two though.

The more stockpiling of non-PG in the west, the better the chances Kidd gets dealt for a decent deal.

This is what I said from the beginning. They should only go after Artest. AI, Melo, Artest, KMart, Camby
I hope this isn't all just a bunch of talk. This needs to happen if the nuggets want to be a contender. I like the Miller idea too. He would be great coming off the bench.
