Bol Bol Likes Tweet Saying Denver Should Trade Him

[First Step]

Resident expert Clyde said he was finna be the next Durant.

[hauntedcomputer]

Get Rich Paul as an agent and then whine in public and stop going to practice. That seems to work.

[BigGargamel]

The ultimate summer league superstar. Every time he does get minutes he makes more mistakes than a high schooler. Three years in and he hasn't seemed to learn anything. Denver probably would have traded him by now if every other GM didn't know the same thing. He's not a rotation player on a championship contending team.

I've only seen him for a little bit but he definitely has NBA tools. If he's lost on the court, that seems to be a coaching issue. I like his game, and would love for the Knicks to take a flyer on him.

Considering the Nuggets have a very long track record of developing their draft picks into solid rotation players, I would say it's definitely a Bol issue.

[Richard Miller]

Well, this is exactly why he dropped so much in the draft, not only because of potential injury issues, but also attitude/motor issues which seem to be kind of true I guess

[ChuckChilly]

I get anxiety every time I see him play with fear that he might snap a limb in half. Just looks so gangly.

[BlazersBroncos]

He has a unique feel and touch for scoring, but after that he has no feel for the game at all. Bad defense, bad passing, meh rebounding, meh motor, not switchy. And on top of all that he doesnt seem to soak in coaching insights either.

I just dont think he is a NBA player. Alot of Magic Randolph to the way he mentally processes the game IMO.

[A_dub06]

I’d take him in the Pistons for pretty much anyone not named Cunningham, Bey, Grant and Stewart?

I think he deserves to play but will never get the burn behind Jokic. Despite the shooting you would never want Jokic and Bol Bol on the court together for a multitude of reasons. Denver should trade him now and get value for him.

[Saints14]

Eh, never a fan of a player taking to social media to complain but I don't blame him. I'm sure bench player in the league thinks they should be playing more, especially a guy his size with his skillset. Maybe he won't ever refine his game enough to make a positive impact but playing for a contender isn't a great environment for him to learn. Presti should throw Denver a 2nd for him - at the very least a Bol/Poku frontcourt would be must watch

Raps need a center

Nuggets desperately need a scorer off the bench and backup center, which should tell you all you need to know about Bol.

[chilluminati]

Bol would benefit from being traded to a horrible team to suck down some stats and actually have a role, but any winning team isn't gonna take a flyer on this dude unfortunately. Too weak and skinny to be a threat in the post, too slow to be a real perimeter drive threat on a consistent basis. He's like the ultimate in-betweener of a SF and a C, and can't do eithers positional roles at a high level.

[Jcity08]

I like Bol Bol, I hope for his sake he finds a way to carve out a role and get minutes in Denver.

[Infinite Llamas]

At the end of the day, this is just a second round pick that wants a bigger role. And also, a second round pick that has done nothing to prove he belongs on the court.

Hard pass on this guy.

[Bologna Smasher]

Has talent and a unique skill set for his size, but he has pretty terrible basketball IQ. Also plays selfishly and not very receptive to coaching. No team that's trying to compete is going to give him a big role unless they're depleted by injuries or just simply lack depth. He reminds me a lot of a poor man's Andray Blatche.

[sikma42]

I wouldn’t mind seeing him on the Lakers. They need young blood and he provides shooting and would do well off the playmakers there.

There’s a reason he’s not playing 3 years in. I’m not giving him no benefit of the doubt. Probably just another dud player.

[John Murdoch]

Washington...like his dad let him get minutes with the Lakers cast offs + Beal

Ya this is the thing to me. It would be one thing if Plumlee was still there. Smart veteran big as the backup for Jokic. If that was the case then I can see the argument that the Nuggets should trade him because he won’t ever get the chance because of the logjam at the 5.

But that’s not the case. There was no legit backup big on the roster last year. They had to go get McGee late in the season just to add some depth. This year it’s basically a 35 year old Jeff Green playing backup 5.

I’m sure Malone would love it if he had a capable scoring big that can come in off the bench when Jokic sits. When looking at NBA rosters you can make the argument that Denver is one of the teams that could use the idea of Bol Bol the most.
