Those 2nds are protected though so slow down Smitty. I mean yes good business from Cleveland no matter what, but I wouldn't overcelebrate just yet.

Zomg!!!!!!1!1!1!!?.

Landscape changing!

No, seriously, solid move for Denver. He brings energy and size and he's proven he's beyond his Shaqtin' A Fool days...

I suggested a while ago Daniel Theis to DEN for a 2nd round pick and a Nuggets fan told me he lost his respect for my ability to be impartial for suggesting that they could use another big lol

shocking that on this board someone was irrational about the team they cheer for. :wink:

I'm more bothered honestly by you dumping Theis for a single 2nd. :(

That's a solid return for Cleveland for a guy that was a strong buyout candidate.

Added a poll.

Also, made the parenthesis into brackets. Because we normally do brackets, and apparently I'm scared of change?

haha it was one of those deals where I was just dumping him into a TPE/cap space so BOS could make their add and stay below the tax, not really trying to get fair value

Perfectly summarizing this trade. Voting a straight win for Cleveland (although I actually like it for Denver, just not nearly as much).

Great job by CLE. I'm pissed Knicks didn't flip Noel for this package

Not a fan of trading two seconds for a potential 2-3 month rental.

I don't hate this for Denver but had to vote Cleveland because they got more value than I expected for Mcgee

That's a very good haul

It's also always nice to see a homecoming, it won't be the same without George Karl though.

(Jokes aside he will be a nice stark switch up to Jokic defensively).

Good for both teams. They both had goals and they were met.

Classic win win. Denver should be very happy - I think Javale is a constantly underrated piece.
