The Denver Nuggets are on the verge of going perfect on their first big road trip of the season, which included four games in five nights against Eastern Conference teams.

In a way the Chris Paul and Dwight Howard rumors directly impact the Denver Nuggets, as well as most of the NBA. Agents, owners, coaches and players are all waiting to see how both the Paul and Howard situations play out and on Denver’s side the Nuggets held another practice without knowing if Nene and Arron Afflalo would be on a team this year.

It was a little over 36 hours ago when reports came out that the New Jersey Nets were going to offer Nene the max and a day-and-half later and no movement has been made. In fact, reports came out that Howard has set his sights on playing with Deron Williams and the Nets. That would impact what New Jersey is going to do with Nene. If Howard signs with the Nets, they would then pass on signing Nene. Which would put Denver as his most likely destination. However, Paul’s trade to the Lakers fell apart for the second time in three days and the Lakers turned their attention to Howard and that, once again, leaves Nene in a limbo.  (more…)
