@kengold He’s probably a good signing. You just never really know with guys from Europe.

@HarrisonWind Diallo is a career 37% shooter from 3 and an eye-popping 57% from 2. His offense might be as good as Braun’s. At $1.4 mil, an absolute steal! Just hope we can keep SJ as well.
English
I think Alpha Diallo is going to play next season and wonder if this could spell the end for Spencer Jones 🛑
English
@HarrisonWind they SHOULD just sign both and actually have a deep defensive roster
English
@HarrisonWind @DNVR_Nuggets Don’t disagree at all, but Diallo is not that. Point being they have not drafted or acquired any shooters, and may lose Watson. I get financial restrictions but not really understanding the plan here
English
@kinnickand @DNVR_Nuggets Jones is a good shooter based on last season, but I think you’d need to target someone who the defense respects more.
English
@HarrisonWind @DNVR_Nuggets Problem is Jones is much better offensively. They screwed that one up. Better sign Roddy
English
@dariel2711 They definitely still need ball handling/shooting
English
@HarrisonWind I think it clearly spells the end for either Watson or Jones. They need another point guard, and I don’t think they are going to roster a minimum 15th guy at the penalty rate to never play. Jones feels in play only if Watson goes
English
@Byk500 They’ve mismanaged Jones and now might pay the price. They should have signed him last season but were too worried about staying under the tax.
English
@HarrisonWind I mean Denver should run a 12 deep roster in the regular season but Jones and Pwat do not look like part of the equation.

The Nuggets took a step toward addressing a big deficiency today.
EuroLeague Defensive Player of the Year Alpha Diallo is coming to Denver.
Here’s what he provides.

I’d expect Alpha Diallo to be in the opening night rotation.

𝑩𝑹𝑬𝑨𝑲𝑰𝑵𝑮: Nuggets are signing EuroLeague DPOY Alpha Diallo It’s a 1-year, $1.4M contract per @ShamsCharania
English
@SeanelKM @CTFazio24 That could be a target…if there’s a sign and trade.
English
Talked about this on the show tonight — what are the Nuggets doing at backup PG? There’s a massive hole on the second unit (I don’t believe in Tyus Jones as that guy) and there’s got to be something in the works if they’re truly going to add more “ball handling.”
Harrison Wind@HarrisonWind
Would Zyon Pullin on Minnesota's Summer League team be the 2nd best PG on the Nuggets' actual roster right now?
English
@prmorphine I could be wrong. I just don’t think that’s an option. Or maybe they enter the season that way then try to move off someone at the deadline.
English
@HarrisonWind It just seems like the only remaining option. Clearly the trade market wasn't there to move guys without losing every trade by a lot and I think the Kroenkes don't want the perception to be either that they are cheap or especially that they are willing to lose trades to be cheap.
English
@HarrisonWind you talked in your show about the shift in the way DEN is going about things this off season. Doesn't this open up the door (to you) the idea of spending into the 2nd apron, bringing SJ/PW/DR back and hoping for injury luck? Post CBA it's really all any team can do.
English
@HarrisonWind It’s going to have to be via trade. Schroder a potential option if LeBron signs
English
@HarrisonWind That is not comforting at all. “It is what it is”?

Christian Braun asked about his health: "I'm going to be OK. I'm always going to be OK. It's in the past. It is what it is at this point."
"This team is resilient. This team is really good. It's a championship built roster. We're excited for next year. We're excited to compete. We're excited to be healthy."
Harrison Wind@HarrisonWind
Christian Braun on his offseason focus: "Sometimes it's good to get punched in the mouth a little bit." "It's good to have that little setback. Definitely motivated. Definitely excited for the summer. Just got to attack the ankle and make sure the ankle's in a good spot. I know I'll bounce back and I know who I am as a player so I'm really excited.
English
@HarrisonWind What about a realistic trade for Scotty Pippen Jr? they can take on Zekes contracts and a 2rp or two of them to get off the contract and get a reliable backup pg.
English
@dariel2711 I’ve got to think they have something like that planned out.
English
@HarrisonWind Portland has 5 point guards. Memphis has like 17 guards and too many players. Feels (maybe hope is the right word) that there are other pieces in place waiting on the Peyton resolution.
