Nuggets wont trade MPJ for Lavine let alone adding a pick.

Both are overpaid, but LaVine is better player overall. He is better shot creator and playmaker. Nuggets don't have good backcourt creator when Murray is hurt. With this trade they wouldn't need to pay 20 million to KCP and could insert Braun or Watson in starting five as wing defender.

Lavine has zero defense. Might even be a negative on defense, and coming off another injury they would have to give a pick before the season starts to get rid of him. If he plays well before the deadline, then the Bulls may be able to trade him for something.
