In addition, from 2004 to 2009, Roos pursued a program of exchanging first-round draft selections for players from other teams, including Darren Jolly, Ted Richards, Peter Everitt, Martin Mattner, Rhyce Shaw, and Shane Mumford. All of whom received greater playing time than they did at their previous clubs, with Paul Roos benefiting from this philosophy. During this period, he traded away seven players who would end up on NBA rosters. Roos's first trade as head coach was to the Brooklyn Nets, who selected Kyrie Irving with the last pick in the 2011 NBA Draft. He then made three more trades over the next two years, sending Kevin Durant, Russell Westbrook, and James Harden to the Oklahoma City Thunder in a blockbuster deal that sent him home to Colorado. After failing to qualify for the playoffs each year, the Nuggets fired Mike D'Antoni after three seasons and brought in Joe Dumars as their new coach. Dumars hired Ron Adams as his assistant coach and former No. 2 overall pick Paul Millsap as his lead player during the 2014 NBA Draft. Joe Dumars is one of the most successful executives in Detroit sports history, having won a championship with the Pistons in 2004. As a player, he spent two seasons with Denver, helping them reach the Western Conference Finals in 2003 before leaving for Detroit that following season. Under his guidance, the Nuggets have enjoyed great success since moving to Denver in 1976, winning at least 30 games each year since 1990.
