2020 NBA trade deadline discussion

Davis and Niang for Aminu. He’s probably out this season, but it gives us a good bench piece going into next year, and forces us to do something with the backups.

More risk than Josh Jackson. And at least Jackson can play right now in this current season
 
man, how could nuggets lose to pistons?

then i turned on the game and saw thon maker guarding basically every nuggets player on the floor in OT...

his size and mobility could be the exact defensive piece that we need.

hate to say it, but Ingles is the common denominator in some of those problem lineups... I know Ingles is literally untradeable because of his extension, and otherwise untradeable because he is the heart and soul of this team. That said, he has been really hit and miss this season and if we had a better, more consistent, more athletic two way player getting his minutes that would really help. I know a lot of people blame Conley for Joe’s struggles, but some of it has to be on Joe as well. All that said, I love Joe and don’t want him going anywhere. I do think he needs to play fewer minutes though and we need to be less reliant on him.

In looking at this roster, the ideal scenario is that Joe is the sixth man, like Quin tried to start the season. And we need Joe to figure it out how he can be effective in that role. If we start with that premise, that Joe is running the second unit and JC is the primary scoring punch, our needs then are other second unit players who fit with them.

Joe’s problems all revolve around trying to shoehorn Conley onto the team. There isn’t a mystery. Gobert is having the same issue.

The common denominator is Conley.
 
Could JIngles and/or Royce be on the trade block? Unless we do a Conley for Love deal you have to give value to get value. Our bench is garbage and we've pawned a lot of our draft picks so here we are.

I'm pretty sure neither one can be traded until the offseason because of the extensions they signed. I don't think the front office would consider trading them anyway to be honest.

I'm not that up to speed on the CBA but management appears to be in a pickle to improve the team. It's obvious we have warts.

We somehow traded Exum for Clarkson, so... The fact is, there are teams who are trying to lose and unload contracts in order to save money--e.g., New York, Detroit, Cleveland, OKC, etc.
 
Problem isn't Conley but the roster construction and fatigue. He seems sharp and quick. Starters are gassed because of having played heavy minutes.

Perhaps DL was expecting Coach Q to utilize one of Brantley and Oni.
