The Nurkic trade...

[spursistan]

Nuggets :lmao....

This is the most retarded trade in the league since I actually can't remember when..

A young budding big handed out to a division rival who are in the same race for one last playoff berth AND wrapping the whole thing with a pink ribbon in the form of a 1st round pick..How nice! :lol..

[spursistan]

Nigga just going HAM on Denver :lol..

[apalisoc_9]

Nigga just going HAM on Denver :lol..

He had a 28 20 game three weeks ago too. :lol

His defense is real and is a really good passer.

He's probably averaging 16-9 since the trade..Can you check it out?

A first rounder and Nurkic for plumlee. :lol

[Robz4000]

Portland is looking damn scary since this trade. Prolly a good thing the Spurs won't get the #1 seed.

[TDMVPDPOY]

nuggets had 2 legit centers...

while the 76s drafted clowns injury prones

[StrengthAndHonor]

This. Hinkie, what a fraud lol.

[Ice009]

I think Pau Gasol was still out injured when the trade was made and I was thinking why couldn't the Spurs get in on it. I thought, oh, they probably didn't want to give up a first round draft pick for him, then when I read Denver gave them a first round draft pick + Nurkic, I nearly fell over. I mean, what the fuck was Denver thinking?

Did Denver actually want Plumlee? Is that why they gave up the pick?

[Mal]

Nurkic and Jokic couldnt coexists. They could have done better deal, if Jokic was injured for a month or something.

[Robz4000]

They could've done way better regardless.

:lmao trading a potential All-Star quality big AND a first round pick for Mason fucking Plumlee

[TDMVPDPOY]

2 of t hese guys got drafted to a team that benefits them most due to more playing time for experience to develop their skills

now if they were drafted on a bad management team? or contending team...they would be buried on bench or still in Europe

bottom feeder teams are nothing more then farming talent teams for the contenders to steal later on

the one got traded to Portland...lol playing with a midget ballhog and a bunch of overpaid scrubs...if it pans out for him, his going to get paid when his off his rookie contract

[spursistan]

Absolute disgusting trade by Denver..Completely handed the the 8th seed to Portland on a platter just when the latter looked dead in the water..

[apalisoc_9]

Nurkic is a beast. My goodness.

I mean, the guy legit looks like the most valuable Blazer out there.

[Robz4000]

The Nuggets literally gave the Guests a potential franchise big AND a lottery pick. Unreal how far that front office has fallen in four years.

[phxspurfan]

Damn, you're right. The Just Blazers look legit AF now. Watch out in 2 years when the Dubs actually have to pay the splash bros and one signs with Milwaukee the other goes to Miami. And CP3 goes to the Knicks. Then it's all Portland vs SA prime time matchups

[TheGreatYacht]

Never underestimate the worth of white American scrubs to these white GM's......

Chandler "MAX" Parsons
Miles "4yr/50M" Plumlee
Mason "Nurkic + a 1st" Plumlee
etc etc

Colorado needed a white American, tbh.

They were confused with nurkic. They could not comprehend how a White Guy has a terrorist name. Too much too ask the average american intellect. So they had to let him go.

Of course. Cursed. The most cursed franchise in all of sports.

[apalisoc_9]

847977904994631681

Wow..And just like that Denver probably steals the eight seed again.

At least Guest have something to look forward to next year. Nurkic really changes their team dynamics.

[bluebellmaniac]

Of course. Cursed. The most cursed franchise in all of sports.

Thought that was the Clippers... tbh

[TheGreatYacht]

Worriers yearly depleted opponent luck starts now. Nurkic is the first domino to fall

[UZER]

Of course. Cursed. The most cursed franchise in all of sports.

That's why your always welcomed Guests.

[Robz4000]

God damn Portland is fucking cursed. Even if LMA never wins anything with the Spurs he has to be thankful they lured him away from suffering a life-altering leg injury.

[spursistan]

Will a star center ever stay healthy in Portland? Yeah, Aldridge left before he drops dead from a heart attack in Moda Center :lol

[ambchang]

Proof that Aldridge was never a star.

[phxspurfan]

Of course. Cursed. The most cursed franchise in all of sports.

Eh, whatever. You guys have a bright future if u give him his rest. Re-tool around those 3 in the offseason, add some bench depth and you're better than the 8th seed next year. Probably competing with the Jazz/Clips at the least

[phxspurfan]

Portland had Rasheed and Sabonis for years. They were healthy and beasts, easily matching up with TD and Shaq when they played. And J Oneal/Brian Grant weren't bad either

[daslicer]

Bad trade but it's hard and almost impossible to get equal value for a young talented player that is on a rookie contract.

[DMC]

Proof that Aldridge was never a star.

Yet he averaged more ppg than Leonard against the Thunder in last year's playoffs.

[Chris]

Today's NBA :lol

Cleveland Browns say hi

[ambchang]

What does that mean?

[tlongII]

Cleveland Browns say hi

They're in Baltimore. Not even close.

[DMC]

What does that mean?

You decide.

[ambchang]

You decide.

I decide the meaning on what you state? Never thought you'd be so subservient.

[DMC]

You demean Aldridge then need interpretation for stats? :lol

[ambchang]

Demean? How was saying somebody who isn't a star not being a star demeaning?

And what interpretation for stats? Stating someone scored more than another means nothing, and I am trying to understand what you meant by saying that.

[Clipper Nation]

Don't bother trying to explain that to Fat Hands. He can't grasp the concept that raw points mean nothing without also considering factors like the player's role on their team or how they got their points.

[apalisoc_9]

I mean, I disagree with Clippernation and ambchang about many things but you'd have to be a legit basketball retard if you're unanimously agreed upon as a basketball retard.

You're a clown if you think Aldridge isn't a star. He's been in the AS game 5 times. That's three more than Manu. Is Manu not a star? He's not a superstar, but any player who garners as much FA attention as Aldridge did in his free agency is a star. You're probably struggling with the language barrier.

More evidence that I am right, when these three agree, it must be wrong.

[ambchang]

Anybody who doesn't agree with me is a clown

Curry is a chucker.

[spursistan]

Damn, Guests in freefall after his injury..they'll still make it, but they are going to get smoked by the Dubs..

[apalisoc_9]

Damn, Guests in freefall after his injury..

Yup. Nurkic should be demanding superstar treatmenr

[Robz4000]

Minny going into tank-mode. Guests gonna get swept in the first round.

[tlongII]

Nurk is coming back for the playoffs!

[Ice009]

Nurk is coming back for the playoffs!

Is he? How bad is the injury? Can he actually play without making it worse? If so, great news. I look forward to watching Portland play.

[tlongII]

That is the plan from what I hear. I don't know if he can make it worse, but he wants to play and I think we'll let him.

[vander]

compared to the Harden trade, this doesn't even register.

[Robz4000]

compared to the Harden trade, this doesn't even register.

While the Harden trade was pretty bad, OKC at least got the picks that turned into Adams and helped facilitate the Kanter trade. Denver literally traded a potential franchise big and a lottery pick...for Mason Plumlee.

[Ice009]

That is the plan from what I hear. I don't know if he can make it worse, but he wants to play and I think we'll let him.

Well, I hope it works out OK for him as I've never hated the Blazers in my entire time watching the NBA (I think it was around '92-'93 when I started following the NBA). I've also become a Seahawks fan, became one the year before they won the Superbowl (Russell Wilson's rookie season, although I'm not sure I'm a big fan of his now, still like the team, but have cooled on Wilson. What do you think of Wilson these days?). Dame is also a great player. I hope Nurkic comes back and can play well to make the first round series and exciting one.

I'm also still pissed off about not giving the ball to Lynch in the Superbowl with at least giving him 1-2 chances to get into the end zone on a first down. That pass interception from Wilson still gets me angry anytime that I think about it.

The pick is on Carroll. He should have run Beast Mode. I'm a huge Russ fan. Top 5 QB in the league imo.
