It was a good move since 'Melo is out 15 games to bring A.I. in to make up those points lost. Plus putting him in with Marcus Camby at center and 'Melo (once back) at forward... sounds pretty damn nice to me.

Philly actually got something decent out of the trade! Miller is a good PG and Joe Smith is pretty good for an old guy! :) ... what happens in Denver now? Watch Melo's scoring dip wayyy down if Iverson jacks the ball as much as he did in Philly. Watch Melo start pouting because he doesn't get the ball anymore just like C-Webb and the other AI ... and look at the damage Iguodala is doing now that Iverson hasn't been playing!! I think Iverson will be a bit of a poison to the Nuggets and they'll turn into what Philly did while he was there ...

I think its a good trade for Denver but, how will the two leading scorer blend together? I just hope that both players will not bump heads cause this is Melos team. It will be a fast pace offense but DEFENSE still require to play at the other end. Good luck to Denver Nuggets. Another title contender in the west.

The big problem is going to be when MarshMelo gets back there is only one ball on the court and AI doesn't share very well, neither does MarshMelo. They will get pissy at each other and Denver will trade AI in the off-season.
All they did is find a quick fix to their problem but it might end up hurting them in the long run. The reason AI couldn't be traded earlier is because he is a head ache for coaches and GMs with his attitude and selfish play. It will be interesting to see him and Nelly together.
They traded a good point guard who likes to get assists for a ball hog that only cares about his numbers, not if his tema wins or loses.

both teams will do good with the trade but melo has to get use to having another star on the team other then just him if they can do that they can be up there in the west with suns and spurs and then it will be fun to watch the west playoffs

GOOD TRADE 4 PHILLY. DENVER GOT THE WORST PART OF THIS DEAL COZ MILLER WAS AGOOD PLAYER AND AI WILL NOT LET MELO BECOME ANY BETTER. 4 THE NEXT 14 GAMES THIS WILL BE FINE BUT AFTER THAT I REALLY DOUBT IT.

All Philly teams have player problems. It is just like trading away T.O., Jim Thome...they get rid of players that can end up burning them later!

I think it is a good deal for the Nuggies. They will certainly need someone to fill a big hole with Melo out for a month!

Yes it's a good deal, but for me I was hoping the HEAT would trade him.......so disappoint.

He will be good for them but i see them dropping him. He has an attitude and misses lots of practices. Deffinately, bad influence on the team.
