    Denver is making sneaky good moves around the edges to still field a competitive team around their stars.

    I love this take. And I totally agree. This is what it needs to be. This needs to be the starting lineup.

    It would be interesting with two none shooters and Cam with Luka. Steep learning curve.

    Players learn by playing. I like slashers, dunkers, fast break energy, on and off ball screens. I can do without the lazy offense of just standing in one place and shooting a three once in a while if the defense sags off. That proves to me the coach doesn't know xs and os enough to install a real offense. Let Luka and AR cook with some athletic power. Walker is much better than most realize. That is a powerful line up that will just keep getting better.

    I am all for it. Would be even better if we had picks to continue to develop and work towards it. With Luka and AR age i think they will be more into proving everyone wrong. Plus may not fit JJ style. I agree with everything but this part. Would you consider Walker Better than Zubac?

    TBA i dont think Walker is that good but he has great size. Bynum was much more polished had great hands and foot work. A real dump the ball in into the post type of player. More of a Joel than a walker. Walker has a limited offensive bag. A healthy Bynum maybe the best center in the league, This is not the case with Walker.
