    For McGee and gallinari. Move batum to sg.

    Starting line-up: Lillard, batum, gallinari, Aldridge, McGee.

    Gallinari is the sf that gets to the line and drives like no other.

    And McGee is the guy who pads his own stats and hurts his team far, far more than J.J Hickson...

    I'm more interested in gallinari. Denver has a choice between igs and gallinari. I think they like igs better. McGee will just be a shot blocker.

    Unfortunately, he'd also be our starting center. JaVale McGee playing 30 MPG is a recipe for disaster. And if we trade Leonard and let Hickcson walk, who backs up McGee? The thought of watching McGee for 38 MPG is enough to give me nightmares. The only potential upside would be unlimited comic relief. HCP could make a new McGee blooper reel after every game.

    Maybe we could sucker them to take freeland instead?

    The best thing about that scenario is it would accelerate Meyers Leonard's development. He'd become a starting center MUCH sooner. After half a season Leonard would be starting after Stotts has seen enough of McGee.

    Mags, why would Denver want to move Gallinari?

    They are in luxury tax. They may want to keep igs too instead.

    Batum is not an sg, and is a far better SF than Gallinari.

    Matthews is a far better SG than Batum. McGee is not desirable at all.

    Meyers Leonard will eventually be worth more than all of the previously mentioned players combined.

    The Nuggets GM should attempt to move Iggy first. That makes more sense.

    Um.......

    Galinari is one of the best forwards in basketball. There is literally no reason Denver would do this

    Rumors are Iggy is going to opt out.

    I'd love to have McGee with some veterans that he respected

    yeah, because what this team needs is a big man who is constantly making comedic errors and highlighted on "Shaqtin' a fool"

    What?! Denver would probably give us McGee for nothing just to get out of his contract. He makes over 10 mil a year and only plays 18 minutes a game.
