They could use Morris at SF.
I'd rather have Barton off the bench at either wing spot in a Craw/LouW microwave role.
I think they could use Morris' toughness and grit and physicality.
I think they have a solid team which won't go too far.
I thought Grant was a terrific pickup and thought he'd have more impact. But Milsap has had a strong year, and Grant hasn't fit in as well as expected.
I see DEN as a very deep team that should cash in some depth for more rotation quality. Porter, Juancho, Beasley, Torrey Craig, Monte Morris are all quality bench guys who could be moved.
I'd take almost any two of them for Morris. Porter the real prize, though he's akin to Knox.
They are not dealing Michael Porter
Got THAT right.
We chose Knox at what, #9?
Denver chose Porter at #14.
If we'd had the patience to eat a year while he rehabbed his back, well, who knows.
Does he have more upside than Knox? Perhaps he is more athletic, a more fluid shooter, but Knox is progressing, and has a year of miscues and brain farts behind him.
Denver can afford to nurture him, what with a veteran big such as Milsap still rolling along, and a 25 year old Grant in the mix.
I find Porter Trade Projections LAUGHABLE. Denver did not spend the #14 pick in the draft on someone who if healthy might have been a top 3 pick, to trade him for a bag of magic beans. They think long term that they have something special, and they may be right.
MEANWHILE.
Dallas without Luca, leading Milwaukee going into the final six. KP with 26-10-4, the Freak with 41, and good old Timmy, doing his Mister Consistency Thang, 1-10 with 4 TOs in 24 minutes. Feast or Famine, our hero.
