Denver is slightly behind OKC in net rating. They clearly won the trade. It got them a good bench.

MPJ is the better player by far, but both teams got what they were looking for. The nets got a nice, complimentary starter and the nuggets got the flexibility they needed to fill out the roster.

Also, I'm in the camp of "Cam will eventually figure out how to play off of a jokic" but that year being featured in BK wasn't good for his career.
