It's so obvious this team lacks rebounding. Outside of Davis we have Jones averaging 6 and Hill/Cunningham averaging 4.
Davis is shooting so many shots you can't expect him to be crashing the offensive glass. He also needs help on the defensive glass. We need a garbage man.
We need a guy who contests for a rebound on every shot we take while not being useless at finishing around the rim.

I think Faried is the type of guy who would work well next to Davis. Often gets trashed by fans for his defense but the guy plays with a lot of energy and is up there is rebs per 48.
He's locked up for another couple years and salaries match with Reke or Jrue.
Who you got?
Who do you want as our garbage man?

Nobody this season.
I want a top 8 draft pick more than I want a top 8 finish. -
01-14-2017, 08:14 PMImposeI agree with Noel. Just have no idea what we have that Phili would want. Demps would be eating some serious crow to trade Jrue and something else to get Noel back.Quote:

Don't see a trade that they would accept, though, since they're loaded with young guards and our main trade players are mid-young guards who are soon to be free agents.Quote:

Couple that with Mudiay being extremely inefficient and all of a sudden a rental of Jrue to clear some cap for next year may start making sense. They might even resign him. It's just hard to pick which direction Denver is trying to go. But if Mudiay was on this team I think he'd be public enemy #1 so I can see incentive for them to trade for Jrue or Reke.Quote:

A swap of Faried for either Holiday or Evans works salary wise, but I'm not sure the Pels management would be thrilled about the remaining two years of Faried's contract when he plays the same position as AD and can't really guard big centers well. That would also probably limit T-Jones and D-Mo's minutes, too, possibly creating some tension since they both took discounts to play here for a try out. Maybe we could sell them on Asik being the defensive enforcer they need and include him in a trade, lol. Although with Jokic playing so well at Center, that's unlikely, since that's partly why Nurkic isn't in the rotation either.Quote:
