Orlando Magic (http://www.sbnation.com/nba/teams/orlando-magic) traded Arron Afflalo (http://www.sbnation.com/nba/players/24211/arron-afflalo) to the Denver Nuggets (http://www.sbnation.com/nba/teams/denver-nuggets) the night of the 2014 NBA Draft (http://www.sbnation.com/nba-draft), but details on another proposed deal involving the veteran swingman emerged Sunday: according (https://twitter.com/ricbucher/status/485904923708518400) to Ric Bucher of Bleacher Report, Orlando offered Afflalo and a future first-round Draft choice to the Golden State Warriors (http://www.sbnation.com/nba/teams/golden-state-warriors) in exchange for Harrison Barnes (http://www.sbnation.com/nba/players/157924/harrison-barnes).
Golden State, says Bucher, declined the offer.

At first glance that would have been a great deal for the Warriors, mainly because of the pick. It would also give them a legit starter at SG, allowing them to pull the trigger on Thompson + Lee for Love + Martin.

If true, and Bucher is worthless as a source, then GS turned down a good deal.

3's are harder to come by these days, and Barnes is young and still has loads of potential. Blows my mind why Jackson gave up on him and asked them to sign Iggy.
