Afflalo Traded to Denver

Afflalo traded to Denver for a spare tire and a used condom

Adrian Wojnarowski ‏@WojYahooNBA 1m

Orlando has agreed to send Arron Afflalo to Denver for Evan Fournier and 56th pick in 2014 Draft, league sources tell Yahoo Sports.

at all the Magic fans that thought they were getting a top 10 pick for him. Hendo +9 for Afflalo + 12 or Hendo + 24 looks fantastic now, doesnt it?

Finally we can stop having the idiots ramming 9 for Afflalo down our throats.

They were convinced 1 year of Afflalo was worth the 9th pick.

C*cky asses the whole way through.

They can s*ck on this one for a while.

I actually think Fournier is gonna be a very good player.

Wow, they were really shooting for the moon when they were asking for first rounders.

Given that I'm sure we could have beaten that offer -- yet didn't -- I hope this is a sign that we'll be drafting a wing and/or going after one in FA.

Or maybe it just means we are married to Henderson......

Denver needed a shooter at SG (thus Afflalo).

They know they're not getting Stauskas at 11 imo.

It must mean Stauskas, followed by Lance.

Pretty please!

Just another reason why people should have more confidence in Cho.

It's scary to think of Henderson's street value in light of this trade.

no doubt, fournier is talented. he had a nice game vs us last year if i remember correctly. he has size, he can shoot and he can pass. he actually compliments olidipo, do a degree. that being said, his value shouldnt be anywhere near afflalo's and the late 50s pick is a throw-away.

Yep, dude knows how to properly value players. He wasn't going to give Orlando (a team in our own division no less) a top 10 pick for a rental. Afflalo was not worth that much, this trade proves that.

Their fans CRAPPED on us for offering pick 24 for Afflalo.

Fournier shot 38% from 3 and he's only 21. I love this type of "under the radar" players.

I was about to leave a cheeky post on the Magic board, but I don't wanna be banned for tonight

Also - great job by Denver stealing Afflalo for 30 cents on the dollar. Magic must have a 2nd deal coming because that trade makes no sense.

This is another reason why I shouldn't have confidence in Cho. Cho could've gave the Magic Henderson + #45 for Afflalo, which would've been a better package that would've improve the Hornets, but he didn't

Fournier is a much better prospect than Henderson, and the second round picks is just kind of a throw in.

No one wants Henderson, at all. He has no value around the league. People need to start realizing that.

Yeah Henderson's contract is like Felton's, it dilutes the value of any package.
