Smith is a much more inconsistent scorer who is in love with the jump shot, he will demand and get a max contract(from someone else, so we’ll have to match), and he could possibly ruin the locker room. He is also older than Gallo. We could get Milsap for less probably. Heck probably get him next year as a free agent. A few bigs who will be cheaper than Smith and less of a head case.

I agree gallo is the better team player. But I think we could use Smith’s defense and rebounding better than gallos inconsistent scoring. I think with Smiths athleticism, he would be another good fit with this style offense. Although he has been consistent the last few games, I don’t see him being the star many think he will be. If chandler can produce even close to what he is, trade him for Smiths expiring contract and a shooter. If he’s still playing at a high level in a few weeks, maybe you could get a draft pick also

The Nuggets don’t really need draft picks, though. Where would the drafted player fit on the current roster? People are already complaining that Hamilton and Fournier need more minutes, which they’re not going to get with the return of Chandler. (And let’s not even mention Quincy Miller.)

The only picks the Nuggets could use are ones from three or four years down the road, and most teams don’t like to trade those because they can’t predict where they’ll be at that point.

I think it’s far more likely Denver includes their first-round pick for next year in any Mozgov trade since it figures to be in the 20′s, and it’s very hard to find a player that doesn’t need development at that point. (Masai has done a good job finding contributors that far down in the draft, but you’re not going to find a superstar there.)

yeap right only Lebron .

One question when Nuggets are defending are you changing channel ?

Basket is not only scoring more from the opponent, but it is also about your opponent to score less … ( I want to say you should focus on both ends)

It is sad, not for you, but for the Farried himshelf people to think that he is good. Then he will never develop. Check out the story with Stoudemire .

Sorry for the irony , but when saying only Lebron I think you are doing the same.

Also, I just noticed they already mentioned Martin.

It’s sort of a joke. HA! I just thought of it because people were talking about getting a tough vet defender and I know K Mart is looking for work. But I’m sure his days in Denver are long gone. But seriously, I think we should trade Mozgov for picks, unless something awesome comes along. We have size and depth at every position. And we haven’t really even seen what Randolph is all about yet.

Gallo is younger, less of a head case, and more of a team player than Smith. Again if Josh Smith would be willing to just be a defensive anchor and not force anything on offense, and be a team player, go for it. But he hasn’t shown any signs of being that, and someone will want to give him a max contract. Which he isn’t good enough to get.

I hope this is a joke… Do you remember K Marts passes in the WCF that was a nightmare and GK loves to try and make the same mistakes over and over….

I’m saying Mozgov and Gallo for J Smith and John Jenkins. Chandler can replace Gallo for half the cost. Jenkins is a 3 point shooter if JHam can’t step up and fill the need of a shooter. Smith is a good defender and has a good post game. He can help with the bigger 4s when Faried is having problems

Trade Mozgov for a draft pick and sign Kenyon Martin.
