DENVER -- Nuggets president Josh Kroenke didnt want to spoil the day of new Colorado Avalanche coach Patrick Roy, so he deflected any talk about the situation involving his general manager. The Nuggets allowed Masai Ujiri, the NBAs Executive of the Year, to meet with the Toronto Raptors about their GM vacancy over the weekend, Yahoo Sports reported. Ujiris contract with Denver expires June 30. As president of the Avalanche as well, Kroenke attended Roys announcement on Tuesday. He remained mum about Ujiri, saying, "There are no Nuggets questions today. Sorry. Its all about Avalanche." Yahoo recently reported that Maple Leaf Sports and Entertainment CEO Tim Leiweke is prepared to offer Ujiri $3 million annually to return to Toronto, where he was assistant GM for three years before joining Denver in 2010.Jawaan Taylor Womens Jersey .C. -- Kemba Walker and the Charlotte Bobcats got off to a fast start, and the Sacramento Kings were never quite able to catch up.
