Nuggets one-for-four operations perfectly make up for each position

During this offseason, the trading and strengthening of the Western teams seemed crazy, especially the arms races of various powerful men were very fierce. The Thunder retained the championship team with two consecutive maximum salaries. The Rockets, Clippers and Lakers are precisely trading and signing for weak positions. The Mavericks won the No. 1 pick Flag and former No. 2 Russell, who will all attack the championship in the new season.

The Denver Nuggets, who lost seventh in the playoffs, once faced rumors that Jokic might leave the team. However, the management responded quickly and sent off starting small forward Michael Porter, and a series of operations were exchanged for Cameron Johnson, Hardaway Jr., Valentines and former former player Brown.

Porter Jr. averaged only 9.1 points, 5.5 rebounds and 0.6 assists per game in the playoffs, becoming a key factor in the team's defeat. In addition to Jokic and Murray's excellent performance inside and outside, the Nuggets were closely related to Gordon's defense and Porter's support from mid- and long shots from outside.

The management's gamble of one-for-four makes people more optimistic about the team's strength next season. Cameron Johnson averaged 18.8 points, 4.3 rebounds and 3.4 assists per game, defeating Porter Jr. in terms of data and having an advantage in height. His arrival not only raised the height of the starting power forward, but also allowed Gordon to return to the familiar No. 3 position.

Brown's return solved the substitute problem of Murray and Braun. This former player was the sixth best man in the Nuggets' championship. Last season, he averaged 8.3 points, 4 rebounds and 2 assists per game with the Pelicans. As a forward pitcher, Hardaway Jr. averaged 11 points, 2.4 rebounds and 1.6 assists per game. His joining with Valan has significantly improved the Nuggets' bench offensive firepower. For a long time, weak substitutes have been a major drawback for the team. Now that the starting strength has improved, there are outstanding players in all positions in the substitutes. The Nuggets in the new season are very likely to become a big dark horse in the West.
