    One person I think will have an improvemwnt if we pick up his options is Vlatko Čančar
  • I believe that the Joker will be really dominating for I believe that his trying to help Jamal , stop been a pleaser Joker.
  • Of all of them, Julian will be better, I am 100% sure. Also, if Huff gets minutes, he will pleasantly surprise all the doubters.
  • @rjon173
    Im sorry guys but Dallas is one piece away from completely dominating the west
  • @CaneOdPchinje
    I get that we need to talk about something every week. But this is kind of secondary. CB will be better, PWat will be better hopefully... I'm not sure anymore about MPJ - I thought he's on an upward trajectory, but POs were kinda telling.. That's about it - Nuggets hopes are not about "who's gonna be better?". It's about "is FO gonna live up to championship expectations?" Nuggets have 2 big holes in their roster - and improvement of the guys listed above will do nothing to fix that. 2 big holes. Pretty much for YEARS - the same holes. Except for that short BB stint. 2 BIG HOLES. Plus, it might just happen that Murray's peak is in a rear-view mirror already. So... there's another BIG question. (and yeah, don't come back to me with "buh... he was iNjuReD... " I have no patience for that crap anymore)

    Nah, CB just has no touch around the rim. He is maxed out as a great defender, energy guy and decent three. Think it’s Strawther. He flashed a bit, was better than advertised on D. He just needs minutes.
  • We need to get Derrick Rose from Memphis - vet, respected around the league, good ball handler, hungry for a championship, can give Jamal some rest while giving CG and JP some competition and guidance
  • @mydog337
    I think CB is set up to have a break out year....his athleticism and hustle will get him open and Yoke will find him more and more.
  • @UraStr
    12 teams with legitimate chance at play off + UTA that is tough at home and SAN who is a wild card...few big teams are missing play-off, there's non 0 chance DEN is one of them, that would be hilarious and depressing at the same time :D (this "year off" they took, while being the best team, might become more disappointing, because there's a chance, they not getting back to that level and they missed one of their two shots), also DAL missing play off would be poetic, wonder how would Luka fans react to that. Also PHX is good one, but it's better if they make PO and get swept, KD need to collect more 1st round sweeps, while he still can go out there and show us how real basketball should be played. I mean passing the ball is very nice, but when it comes down to it, you need KD to do his thing...
  • I think peyton improves the most next year....him and strawther have the highest ceilings
  • CB can put pressure on the rim and has a much better IQ than mpj
  • @mydog337
    I think Jamal has been evolving to a overated role player....his lack of length, defense and speed has been exposed and now he will start to get fewer and fewer calls. Malone loves him some Murray so he is going to get all the minutes and shots he wants but I do not see his efficiency going up.....I hope he proves me dead wrong.
  • this year goodbye KCP for nothing, next year at this time Gordon leave for nothing.
