Nuggets Involved In Two Huge Trades
[1/15/06] The Nuggets made two huge trades on Sunday that sent Kenyon Martin to the Portland Blazers for Zach Randolph and another trade that involved three Denver Nuggets including Voshon Lenard, Bryon Russell, and Earl Watson for Raja Bell, Jim Jackson, and James Jones from the Phoenix Suns. When questioned regarding the trades, General Manager Solomon Reka said the trades will help the team get younger. The Media also talked to him about the Kenyon Martin trade and he said, "Keyon Martin was a huge part of this team offensively and on defense but we felt that we had to move on if we want to win a championship. I believe Zach Randolph is a All star Player who puts up big numbers, last season he was averaging over 20 points before his injury. He will be a big part of this team right now and in the future."
