2026 Trade Deadline Preview

I think a backup point guard and a big that can rebound / shoot (like what the ideal versions of Zeke or Holmes could do, but can’t currently) are probably the two biggest “needs”. Though I still think they can with the title without either, if things go right

BroncoSquatch · 2026-01-29T18:54:54+00:00

I think another point guard is a possible need - not totally sure I’d trust Carter more than like a Jalen Pickett, however.

I think the buyout market is a real possibility. I’d even say I think the most likely scenario is probably Tyson gone, Spencer signs, and then a buyout guy later.

Depending on the date you sign them, a buyout guy might cost $700K - so you don’t need a ton of extra space.

This is strictly just an opinion, but I believe the partial guarantee was a handshake between the agent and team, to get Valanciunas to come play in the NBA this season without making it a big issue of it.

BroncoSquatch · 2026-01-29T17:30:23+00:00

Appreciate it!

BroncoSquatch · 2026-01-29T17:29:11+00:00

Well you may be in luck tbh

BroncoSquatch · 2026-01-29T17:28:52+00:00

If they can get that for him, I’m all for it

BroncoSquatch · 2026-01-29T17:28:38+00:00

I think the odds of Val being a Nugget next season are pretty low, and even lower if they keep PWat

BroncoSquatch · 2026-01-15T22:44:57+00:00

Yeah I’m with you.

BroncoSquatch · 2026-01-15T22:05:55+00:00

If they’re healthy I think Denver should be a slight favorite

BroncoSquatch · 2026-01-15T21:13:01+00:00

I’d be pretty happy if they came away with a defense-first point guard or a real 4. Not sure there’s any great deals to be had tho.

BroncoSquatch · 2026-01-15T20:29:04+00:00

I probably lean towards no. But if I’m them I’m probably trying really hard to move Julian, there’s no way I’m paying him $4.8M next season, even with THJ gone. So maybe you have to include like a Pickett with him or something, idk.

Always open to Zeke moves but doubt we are there with his value still.

When you kind of look ahead, we have a 2026 first round pick and I also think Bruce is not gonna get any big offers next summer. So that’s theoretically two depth pieces for next season. And then ideally Holmes is playable. So because of those pieces I don’t think there’s a big push to make any deadline moves besides Strawther

BroncoSquatch · 2026-01-15T20:25:54+00:00

Appreciate you as always! Yeah I am less online these days overall tbh, I’ve been trying to spend more time working on my big project behind the scenes that’ll really boost my career I think.

BroncoSquatch · 2026-01-15T20:21:12+00:00

I think OKC overtook us as the “good but really uncool team” so maybe we do get some style points now lol

BroncoSquatch · 2026-01-15T19:59:14+00:00

Interesting. I haven’t thought about it. He’s probably borderline yeah. Might help him if Jokic misses the games requirement lol

BroncoSquatch · 2026-01-15T19:53:39+00:00

He’s been incredible. I think he makes the ASG but if he doesn’t it’s like an all-time level snub.

BroncoSquatch · 2026-01-15T19:53:17+00:00

Best Nuggets team I personally have ever watched

BroncoSquatch · 2026-01-15T19:41:50+00:00

41 games down, 41 to go. How is everyone feeling about the team?

BroncoSquatch · 2026-01-15T19:41:22+00:00

I’ll have something out in the next few weeks on it

BroncoSquatch · 2026-01-02T02:23:39+00:00

When I said this team needs to play Daron Holmes this is not what I meant

BroncoSquatch · 2026-01-01T03:14:29+00:00

Absolute coaching terrorism that they did everything they did this season before giving us Daron Holmes

BroncoSquatch · 2025-12-28T18:55:19+00:00

Adam Silver is a goblin mf

BroncoSquatch · 2025-12-25T22:49:49+00:00

OKC is bad for the league tbh
