WTF? I fucking started shouting when I read this.

I hope it's just Chad Ford being a dumbass, and not actually true. Seriously... I would understand maybe Lawson for a top 5-6 pick (for Favors/Monroe/Cousins) but he mentions players in 8-20 range... What really scares me is that Wark might be suckered into giving up Lawson for Indiana's #10 pick considering Indiana really needs a PG... then we would be completely ripped off...

A number of NBA sources are telling me that the Denver Nuggets are in the hunt for a Top 10 pick. Nuggets GM Mark Warkentein has been calling around trying to gauge interest in teams selling the pick. According to sources Warkentein is offering Ty Lawson for the pick. A Nuggets source said the Nuggets are looking for big man to fill up their front line. Several bigs including Cole Aldrich, Ed Davis, Ekpe Udoh, Patrick Patterson, Daniel Orton and Hassan Whiteside could be there at 10.

Please god i hope he's just pulling this out of his ass....

btw, this means that my Draft preview might have to be re-written to include top 10 pick. Also if we do trade Lawson for one of those picks (please no!!!!!), we get a glaring hole at PG and Chauncey isn't getting any younger. Please trade JR before you trade Lawson!!!!
