Over the past couple seasons, the Denver Nuggets have proved to be one of the biggest offensive threats in the NBA. But they have also shown themselves to be one of the WORST defensive teams.
Last season, the nugs finished 4th on offensive rating, but 29th in defensive rating. This put them with a 40-42 record. This season, with the addition of Paul Millsap (who is now out until January), the nugs are 7th in offense, and 23rd in defense. Although they hold the #5 spot in the West, they still are gonna need some defensive improvement in the near future if they want to stay a playoff team.
Another problem with Denver is their forward-filled roster. Their roster consists of nine forwards, six of those being power forwards.
Since Denver will most likely hold their 2018 first rounder somewhere around pick #17, I would like to hear who you guys think the nugs should draft and why.
