If Denver go in the identical method did final season with a second-round exit, count on main adjustments, Zach Lowe says.

I simply know this core is enormously costly. Aaron Gordon is gonna quickly be up for a giant extension that may give him a much bigger wage quantity. The bench is younger and untested. There are extra questions than there actually must be a few crew that was the no-brainer favourite to win the West final season and fell two rounds in need of the place they wished to get. In the event that they don’t get the place they should get this season, I feel one thing there may be gonna change.”

I don’t know the place this goes, however I don’t like the place we’re,” Simmons stated.
