Re: Nurkic: "I don't see my future in Denver"
I 100% don't want to offend the great Nuggets posters. You have opinions for your players, some are higher and some are lower than they should be, just like all other teams.
I just want Skywalker's opinion on the matter only because anytime a nuggets player is mentioned in trade rumors he would come to the celtics board and tell us how bad our trade offers were and how much more you would get for the nuggets player. I'm ok with that here, just not there.

The debate's been settled, some folks have some crow to eat. On to the next great debate.
You are a class act!
Thanks - it also helps that I seem to like Plumlee more than most (hoped Boston would snag him), so I think this move is defensible for Denver.
I do view it as a win for Portland (even though I don't believe Nurkic has "star" level untapped upside, I do think his potential at 22 has more value in a vacuum than Plumlee's known contributions at almost 27, and POR gains draft position to boot). But, it's defensible. Makes Denver better now (imo), and nips the Nurkic situation in the bud before his contract starts getting too short. There are worse ways it could have gone.

I thought it was just a Boston thing. Seems to be a Realgm theme here.

Speaking of class, you're more like most Celtic posters; you don't have much.

I am going to publicly warn those that are on the board to troll. I will have you suspended. If you are here to have a conversation then we can do it.

Re: Nurkic: "I don't see my future in Denver"
What I find interesting is the classless fans really have little to say about the trade, they're more to persecute the Nuggets who put our own value on a player we drafted.
please refrain from attacking entire fanbases even if they are baiting you.

While I am not Skywalker I will let you know how it feels to be a Nuggets fan right now. We have watched a coach screw with and destroy a very talented young player due to a personality conflict and not liking a pick and roll offense. Just as we are watching him destroy Mudiay and Murray because the coach is not **** smart enough to figure out to use him. With a year it would not surprise me to see people question how the Blazers got him and a pick for Plumlee.

Probably a reason why I avoid their board. They have some good people, but they have a LOT of people and New England fans tend to be more "enthusiastic". Go to a Celtic or Knick game; I've done both. Doesn't matter what their team's record is, they are LOUD - sometimes in a good way, sometimes in a not-so-good way.

I am sure that the change in value has nothing to do with Nurkic walking out of the arena during a game week ago.

We LIKE Nurkic, why would we want to torture himAs always with BOS fans, overvalue your players, devalue everyone elses....
Sure cause value stays the same regardless of what happens.

Re: Nurkic: "I don't see my future in Denver"
Well, I wish Nurkic all the best. I liked him and for all those who didn't like his attitude, please don't seek to bring in Cousins. LOL Attitudes can indeed be a problem. We just saw that it can also cost to eliminate attitudes.
My greatest fear? Nurkic becomes a key component of the team that takes 8th place away from the Nuggets. I still believe Nurkic's best exceeds Plumlee's best. On the otherhand, Plumlee will not be an attitude problem. He seems to just love playing in the NBA no matter where he plays. I suspect he'll love Denver too.
