Still obviously worried about the injury history but I was mostly just trying to get the other dude to justify his KD prediction with actual insightful analysis (he can't).
I'd be really surprised if they traded Barton. He's a great bench scorer and a capable ball-handler. I won't be surprised if they move him to the bench this season for Grant, though. Love Grant's length and defensive ability. He's also a capable set shooter.
I could see MPJ realistically get somewhere in the area of 20mpg off the bench this season. If he averages over 10ppg this year I think that's a huge win for the Nuggets.

I really think Barton could go they need to lock up Malik anyways. I think his mid range and 3 and difficult on the shot moving shots remind me of some KD qualities. I think he may get more comfortable and a bit quicker farther he gets away from injury. I do think the Kd as a ceiling isn’t crazy, but don’t think that’s where his game will go, I see him banging down low a bit more than KD does, he had a first step from the 3 point line to a dunk 1st game I was really impressed with quickness. All I know is he has crazy potential and he has looked like a rookie forsure at times this preseason, but some of his scoring skills look elite. His jump shot is fantastic and can take him a long way if he stays healthy. I’m excited it would be a great story, he was sooooooo good coming out of high school
