Nuggets dodged the Peyton Watson headaches Cavaliers are now facing

There were many people who were questioning the Denver Nuggets' trade of Peyton Watson to the Cleveland Cavaliers. The Nuggets were giving up a young, potentially really good player. Potentially. But if the first six games Watson has played for the Cavs are any indication of how things will go this year, the Nuggets avoided some real headaches.

In fact, Bleacher Report even called Watson the Cavs' "biggest problem," to start the year. And the reason why is most likely the same reason the Nuggets were reluctant to hand him a large contract extension in the first place.
