No they wont turn into the denver nuggets cause they are gonna have tons of cap space when those guys are gone.
They'll also have Curtis Borchardt and Raul Lopez, their two Rookies who have sat out all of this season. And Deshawn Stevenson will be a good player too.
DeShawn Stevenson is getting better, Raul Lopez is supposed to be very good, Borchadt is supposed to be in the top 8 rookies, and Kirilenko and Harpring are getting better every game they play.

They will have money to spend and still have Harpring, Kirilenko, Lopez, etc
The quick fix will be adding Elton & Dre Miller. This is a crucial time for Stockton & Malone to retire or play for another team or simply sign for the minimum. The Free Agent pool is going to be very deep, and if the Jazz can reload quickly.
Also, I would trade Harpring while he's hot. AK47 is more than capable of taking over the SF position, and it would free up more playing time for Stevenson. Harpring is thriving in Utah's offense, but once he stops receiving pinpoint passes from Stockton and Mark Jackson, he will fall back to his mediocricy. Sell Harpring now!

it's possible for the Jazz to become the next Denver Nuggets... I would say they woulden't do as well.
i heard that malone wanted to play for another team next year on Sportcenter. that could change when no one shows him the money, but i doubt it. I bet he has "emmitt Smith" syndrome.
They will have Andre Kirelinko, hes good, and Matt Harpring, for a SG, matt Harpring shoots close to 50% last time i saw it was .508%, but it will take them a couple of years to re-group and get a better team, theyll become a team struggling to make the playoffs when they leave, but wont be horrible.
i think malone will keep playing, he is the type of guy that wants to beat the record...it is possible for him to go to the lakers because the lakers have been in search for a power forward for years
NBA Insider Stephen Jackson said Malone would re-sign for $10M for 1 season with the Jazz, or sign for the Lakers for the mid-level exception.
They have definitely got potential with young players but if they want to keep the playoff streal alive they need to go for Andre Miller this offseason and try get a deal for Brand from the Clippers. Go for Duncan but they wont get him as there's no reason for him not to resign.
