    Trash for Afflalo.

    Excellent deal for Blazers.

    Blazers are better than us now.

    Blazers gave up less than I thought they would have to.

    So I guess he's coming off the bench? Hopefully he leaves anyways at the end of the year

    Great deal for both squads.

    Denver needs to go ahead and blow it up now, please dump Lawson in Houston. We have a lottery pick and Motiejunas waiting for you.

    Why does it seem teams have to give up so little in deals like this..I cannot believe there was no better deal out there for the Nuggets.

    Afflalo was the star for a team last year, and now he is the Blazers 6th man!

    Portland can throw dudes at Harden the whole game now. Absolutely need another playmaker.

    If we can manage to get Ty Lawson, I won't be worried.

    DMO for Ty Lawson? I'd rather the Blazers be better than us this year than that...

    GARM's reaction makes it sound like Portland's acquired LeBron or something. It's hilarious!
