2010 Denver Nuggets Summer Report Card


Here is the 2010 Denver Nuggets Summer Report Card:





Category
Grade
FrnCourt
Issues of varying degree are dogging Carmelo Anthony, Kenyon Martin and Nene. The latter two are dealing with injuries. Melo's mindset is on trial.
B
BckCourt
Chauncey Billups, a consummate team leader, is as heady and steady as they come. Still gets it done, even at nearly 34. Arron Afflalo proved serviceable his first year in Denver.
B
Defense
For a playoff squad, this was a struggle. League rankings in rebounding, shooting defense and points allowed were sub-par.
C
Bench
J.R. Smith is explosive, but volatile. Newly signed Al Harrington can fill it up, too. Ty Lawson developing into PG of the future. Chris Andersen has injury concerns.
B
Coaching
The hope is George Karl returns to the sideline healthy and able to resume the grind. That's the plan, but it's best to have contingencies in place.
Inc.

Overall Grade  C
