    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">With the Nuggets in need of shooting help, they are pursuing free agent forward Keith Van Horn, who has averaged 16 points-per-game in nine NBA seasons.

    Van Horn made $15.7 million in the final year of a max contract last season and discussions with the Nuggets are ongoing and nothing appears imminent.</div>

    For the right price, he's not bad for them. Similarly for the right price, he wouldn't be bad for New Jersey either, but he's already been there and done that, and I have a feeling he's not wanted back. Denver needs the outside shooting though.

    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Van Horn must take a big pay cut after making $15.7 million with the Mavericks. The Nuggets, who have 12 players under contract for $61.6 million and don't want to pay the luxury tax after $65.4 million, don't appear willing now to pay Van Horn much more than $2 million.</div>

    Is he going to want to take a $13 million pay cut?
