Camby Deal Signals The Beginning of the End of the Iverson Era in Denver

Thu, 24 Jul 2008 18:38:54 +1900

Any Denver fans who entertained notions that Carmelo Anthony and Allen Iverson would ever lead the Nuggets to playoff glory received a very rude awakening when Nuggets management "traded" starting center Marcus Camby to the L.A. Clippers for the right to swap second round draft picks in 2010. Camby is 34 years old but he is still a highly productive player: he won the 2007 Defensive Player of ...

Camby Deal Signals The Beginning of the End of the Iverson Era in Denver

Thu, 17 Jul 2008 10:42:22 +1900

Contending teams do not simply give away a valuable asset like Marcus Camby--and that is precisely the point: the Nuggets are not a contending team and their management is painfully aware of that fact.

Iverson for Brand for Camby

Mon, 21 Jul 2008 14:18:41 +1900

It doesn't always work this way, but it's interesting to note that the Clippers, Sixers and Nuggets just (kind of) participated in a blockbuster, three-team, three-player trade that took about 19 months to complete. When Philadelphia sent Iverson to the Nuggets in December 2006, they did so with the specific intention of freeing up some cap space to sign a free agent. Unfortunately, ...

Posey brings relentless style of play to Hornets

Thu, 24 Jul 2008 10:14:10 +1900

By: Jim Eichenhofer, Hornets.com When James Posey was a rookie with the Denver Nuggets during their 1999-2000 training camp, the Xavier (Ohio) graduate immediately irked some of the team’s older players. Not because he was being disrespectful to the Nuggets’ veterans or making “rookie mistakes,” mind you. No, what bothered a couple of Denver’s seasoned pros was the way Posey kept ...

Nuggets Willing To Trade Iverson

Tue, 22 Jul 2008 11:44:27 +1900

Indications are the Nuggets would trade Iverson if the deal was right. They'd also trade Kenyon Martin or Nene, if anybody wanted either. And owner Stan Kroenke would be willing to deal the Rocky Mountains if he owned them and it would keep him from paying the luxury tax. But Iverson has trade value. With an expiring $20.84 million contract, he would be an ideal for teams looking to clear space

Camby Presser

Andrew Kamenetzky has a nice summary, with embedded sound bits, over at SportsHubLA : Camby expressed numerous times his enthusiasm at the notion of teaming up with Davis, Chris Kaman, Gordon and Al Thorton, whom he described with a laugh as”very aggressive offensively”). There are issues, however, with the deal itself, a blatant salary dump which Camby received warning could be ...

Kent Casey writes: So, let me get this straight: what the Nuggets have done so far this off season is get rid of the only two guys who actually cared about defense, were deeply committed to kids and community, and seemed to care more about "team" than "me"? Well, Mr. Kroenke and staff, you just lost me as a fan and supporter. It was already no fun last year watching Melo, and the "Matadors" ...

Fool’s Gold

Fri, 18 Jul 2008 20:04:00 +1900

Luxury tax or not, Marcus Camby had to go. Camby’s Defensive Player of the Year award in 2006-2007 was a farce. Camby is a good shot blocker, but only went after shots he could block and rarely altered those he couldn’t. Shot blocking and steals are terrible measures of defensive prowess. Unfortunately, they’re two of [...]
