Nuggets to offer Boykins contract.. http://www.denverpost.com/Stories/0,1413,3...1536056,00.html <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">The Nuggets are expected to offer a contract to Golden State Warriors free agent Earl Boykins by early this week. He's a real good backup point guard, and he disrupts the game," Vandeweghe said. "We like him." The 5-foot-5, 133-pound Boykins averaged 8.8 points and 3.3 assists last season. He ranked 14th in the NBA in free-throw percentage (86.5) and 10th in assist-to-turnover ratio (3.0). Boykins, 27, has had several big games against the Nuggets during his five-year career and has a reputation as a good fourth-quarter player. By signing with the Nuggets, Boykins could be reunited with point guard Andre Miller. Boykins and Miller were teammates with the Cleveland Cavaliers during the latter part of the 1999-2000 season and at times shared the backcourt. Miller, a restricted free agent with the Los Angeles Clippers, signed an offer sheet from Denver on July 16. The Clippers t expected to match the offer sheet, but have until 9:59 p.m. MDT on Thursday to match the offer sheet.</div> Boykins would be a prefect back-up for miller....nuggets are looking good here..also Sjax has been in talks with them...which will likely be the place where he signs PG Miller SG Sjax SF Melo PF Nene C Camby with boykins,skeeta,white as the main guys off the bench..thats nice..and will get alot more wins next season than they did this past season.More so if melo scores his points..they basically had a guy melo who could get 15PPG..Sjax with 11PPG...Boykins 8PPG..miller 14PPG with 7 assists a game...
