Nuggets Robinson to Boston

Will not change much in the long run of things. Depends on who Boston trades

 

Why would they want to pick up Robinson? Contract?

 

confused why would Boston Do this??

 

There must be a pick involved.

 

more than likely, but damn how many picks do they want LOL..
there has to be more to this trade:

 

the art of tanking. sign a midget.

Nate back to The Green; Nelson moves on. And on.

Will either/both be bought out/retraded?

 

Weird trade

 

Remember when Clutchfans were in terror when we couldn't lure him to come to Houston this passed summer? Good times. Good times...

 

Poor Jameer getting passed around after initially signing with Dallas after long consideration.

Cuban 'cares' about his players!

 

I wish we could get Nate here

 

Nate is making about $2 million, and his contract is expiring. Nelson is making $2.7 million, and has a player option for next year. Nate is playing about 14 minutes a game. Nelson has been hurt, but averaged about 20 minutes a game for Boston when he was playing.

My best guess:

1) Boston wanted to rid itself of Nelson's player option
2) Denver is planning to trade Lawson or Afflalo.

 

Nate is supposedly being bought out and could go to the Clippers

 

Why does Boston care about Nelsons player option? Who are they trying to sign? And what does Denver get from Nelson (besides paying for 2 years instead of one? )

 

This.

And while were at it, Spencer freakin Hawes was another one some people would not shut up about saying how Morey doesn't value depth and he's letting our competition get better while we do nothing.

We sure are missing that 40/30/64 triple slash

 

Maybe because Boston doesn't want to pay for two years of Nelson, and thought they could save some money by taking a lower paid player and getting them to agree to a buyout?

Denver must want Nelson "the player", otherwise this move doesn't make sense. I think Lawson could be on the way out.

 

Trade won't be complete if Boston gets some kind of pick :grin:
