With the NBA trading deadline less than a month away, the Nuggets could be thinking about getting bigger. While nothing is imminent, the Nuggets are in need of bulk and have some interest in making a move to get it. Among the big men reportedly being shopped are Atlanta forward Shareef Abdur-Rahim, Chicago center Eddy Curry, Los Angeles Clippers forward-center Melvin Ely, Orlando forward Juwan Howard, Cleveland center Zydrunas Ilgauskas, Dallas forward Antawn Jamison, Atlanta center Theo Ratliff, New York forward-center Kurt Thomas and Portland forward Rasheed Wallace.

If the Nuggets try for a young guy with potential, like Curry, they'll have to give up likewise, maybe Nene and then some, like Anderson. Reef is more palatable, and perhaps they can just give up Camby and some bait, such as Anderson or Skita. That trade would do wonders for the Nuggs, and would help Atlanta clear up some cap space.
I wouldnt risk giving up on any of the Nugs' young talents like Nene, Anderson or even Tskitischvili...give them time to grow and learn the league...they have made incredible strides with the youth they have now, so I think it would make sense to just look for additions through free agency...
Eddy Curry would be a great addition to the Nuggz but i think he would go crazy if he was traded away from his hometown, and so would the fans. This guy is great......awesome he shouldnt be traded for skita or anderson or even camby i think. he should stay in the windy city.
I think the Nuggets are trying their hardest to move Camby, who might not have another good year left in him. The It'll be good to trade Andersen and Camby for Kurt Thomas, if Zeke will do it.

I wouldn't give up on the young talents quite yet. They all are still very young and have much potential left in them. However, names like Antawn Jamison and Rahim sound very convincing, I'd be willing to package one of them for that kind of player. Ilgauskus, could also very well be what the Nuggs need. I would stay away from Rasheed Wallace, and injury prone Theo Ratliff, and Kurt Thomas as well. He can't bang with the Western Conference centers, Eddy Curry seems like an interesting name also.

I'd get SAR myself, it'd be a great opportunity for him to work with a much better cast. As for improving the Bulls themselves, he definitely would, not by a small margin either but by a lot. His rebounding, size and defense would definitely come in handy. He's real strong too, strength and size are things the Bulls seem to lack, you simply have speed, effort and offense.

eddy curry is AWFUL. another freaking bust. he won't mesh w/ that nuggets squad. PERSONALLY.. i think they're FINE w/ camby, nene, and anderson in the middle. 3 big men is better than none, or one.. i'd love to have camby or nene, or heck, even offensiveless anderson on the lakers.. (i forget if anderson is "andersEn" or "sOn"..)
Hell no. If they are 29-22 IN THE WEST with the big men they got now, then why the hell trade? Camby is just awesome, Nene has been great in just his second year, Andersen is a sparkplug off the bench, heck, even Fransisco Elson plays well when he gets chances (ex. tonight) Kiki shouldn't change anything at all. Denver has one of the strongest team chemistries.
