Welcome on to a Hollinger and Duncan, very special day one of free agency.

Not quite, actually, no, this is exactly 24 hours after free agency started that we are

recording this right now.

Do you have any takes left after you cheated on me with Lowe earlier today?

I still have plenty of takes left.

Yes, yes. There was a bunch of stuff that was off

limits actually because he had already done it or whatever. Okay. Well, yeah, I'll let you start with

just the thing that's stuck out to you the most in since we last recorded i guess the day after the draft yeah a lot has

happened since then most interesting trade has to be porter for johnson in denver yeah if only because

we've been talking about that for a year you and me well there's that fact that exact trade

and i mean the nuggets they they traded the last thing they had left to trade, but they put themselves in a position to have the best team around Yokic that I think they've ever had.

They have a real backup center now because they somehow convinced the Kings to turn Sarge into Valanchunus.

They get Bruce Brown back and Tim Hardaway Jr.

I mean, neither of them were amazing last year, but that's still an upgrade on what they

had coming off the bench.

They turned Porter, obviously, into Cam Johnson, who I think is just a little bit more

dependable, even though Porter at his best,

I think, is a better player than Johnson. But I think Johnson is more dependable from night to night.

And the shooting threat is still there and the volume shooting, which is something they need.

I think they have a lot more shooting now, especially getting Hardaway 2 than they had before. I would still like them better if they had one more

real guard on the team, but I think they are much improved and they probably still won't win

a crazy ton of regular season games, but that's a team that scares me in the playoffs.
