Why the Nuggets and Danilo Gallinari need to go their separate ways

There’s an abundance of items on general manager Tim Connelly’s to-do list this summer, which includes, but isn’t limited to the No. 13 pick in the upcoming draft, an extension for rising two-guard Gary Harris, a fresh contract for restricted free agent Mason Plumlee, and what to do at the point guard position where the Nuggets are overloaded with three primary ball handlers in Jamal Murray, Jameer Nelson, and Emmanuel Mudiay.

Another action item, and one that will likely draw more fanfare and attention around the league than the other three is unrestricted free agent Danilo Gallinari, who will reportedly decline his $16.
