    <span style="font-family:Arial">Marcus Camby is 33 years old and still has nagging injuries (has been healthy this year, though)Should we unload him now while his trade value is still high? I am undecided on this, I love Camby and I love what he brings to the table, but he will soon be on the downside of his career. I would like to trade him before his stock drops. Agree? Disagree?Bringing back an old topic.</span>

    I would say yes. I think Denver is deep enough in the froncourt to take a chance and trade him for a Bynum and some solid role players and maybe a pick. If Denver gets a good enough offer I think they should take it. Cause Camby is on the downside of his career, and the fact yall have Nene and K-Mart(questionable though), yall can probably trade him for the future and get along well without missing him too much.

    I think I'd keep him, because IMO, the Nuggets are on the verge of being contenders in the West. You'd be trading one of the best centers in the NBA, and centers are hard to come by now days. If you did trade him, I don't think you'd get equal value for him. I would just keep Camby and AI, try to win as many games as you can, and then once their contracts expire, you should have a good amount of spending money. But I don't really know the Nugget's contract situation that well, so I could be looking at it wrong.

    If we can get what we're looking for then yes, absolutely we should trade him. Right now we need a good sized guard who can not only shoot the 3 but is also decent defender that can man up against the many great SGs of the West. Unfortunately, those are very hard to come by right now. Although, I'd jump all over a trade that could land us Bynum but I don't think the Lakers would go for that.

    If Denver gets the right deal, then they should pull the trigger. If not, then they shouldn't. No reason to trade him just for the sake of trading him. If what you're getting in return doesn't make sense, then you are better off keeping the anchor of your defense.

They can get JO/KG with Bynum what would they want Camby? But if we could I deff do it.Other wise unless we get a really good deal, and don't think we will no way trade Camby.
