If there's one weakness to point out on the Nuggets' roster, it's the point guard position. Denver has plenty of firepower, but when its second-leading scorer is the one handling the ball, no one is going to be happy.
The big rumor is the Nuggets working to land Chicago point guard Kirk Hinrich. He's a pass=first point who's a hard-nosed defender. He would thrive in Denver with all the different options to pass to.
But in order to get him, Denver would probably have to give up Marcus Camby. A loss, yes, but one that's worth it in the long run.
Another option is signing Los Angeles Clippers free agent Shaun Livingston. An immensely talented, but injury-ridden player, Livingston would give the Nuggets a big point guard to offset the 6'0" Allen Iverson.
The best person to compare him to is Penny Hardaway. If they Nuggets do sign him, let's hope he's more like the young, electrifying version instead of the older, role playing one.
