    Maybe what's hurting us in trading any of our guys that they wants players that can actually play defense.

    I get that, and it sounds like Denver used a '25 pick, so not that much difference, but my point was that people talk about these picks way down the road as if they're just as good as a 1 this year, and they're just not.

    So the Nuggets just gave up their 6th leading (single digit) scorer, a scrub who doesn't play, and a 2025 protected pick for Gordon?

    No way in HELL we couldn't have beat that if Neil wanted to.

    COMPLETE FAILURE!!!

    in general every tweet I’ve seen has been “the magic won the deal” from fans on both sides. Look at the Twitter replies under Woj.

    that said, it would appear Twitter is pretty high on RJ Hampton. And calling him a scrub bench player as a rookie is a bit disingenuous.

    Yeah, seems we could have easily beat this, but perhaps Trent Jr was not made available?

    He might not have put pressure on the organization but I need an article to back up this hypothesis that he is keeping Neil in place first and foremost or holding the franchise hostage to keep Terry and CJ here. I don't believe it. I here him say this is a business all of the time. He's had good friends on the team traded before. He might not love it but he would deal with it... his brand depends on that.

    Edit: It's not his job to trade away his friend or be a coach killer

    Seeing a bunch of players that could’ve helped and were reasonably priced go elsewhere

    The Blazers are the ugly duckling. Don't get to take part.

    He scores 2.6 points in 9 mpg. As of now, he is a scrub. He may develop, but this is about 'Now' for Denver. Good for them. Likely bad for us.

    The Blazers not getting AG is causing a complete meltdown. Dude isn’t that good anyway.
