Great discussion on KCP on Orlando…cmon guys.

[BloomsArchitect]

The thought of Jokic in Serbia playing with his horses. Calling the Nuggets front office and saying “I want Westbrook” is just hilarious.

[olenskafanboy]

I'm so disappointed in the Nuggets front office right now. After what happened this year the answer is not to get worse. The regression continues...

[PeterBoye-vroy]

Thank you for speaking the truth about delusional Booth. It is insane what he is doing to Jokic. Joker is the best player the Nuggets will ever have and Booth is betting Jokic’s prime on late first and second round draft picks.

[charliesmarts]

Could we talk about the fit in Orlando a bit more tho?

[adamkoncz]

Nuggest's aside a defensive front court of Suggs (2nd team all D) and KCP will be smothering. He also adds the veteran presence and 3 point shooting and Magic desperately need. Paolo and Franz should take the next step. In respect to talent Orlando has to be top four in the east

[lat-roc]

I can see the Kroenke sports franchise business seeing the compensation to be paid by 2nd apron teams to thise under the cap. KCP at $22m was Sarver cheap - reminds me of Phx losing Joe Johnson to the Hawks

[chrisg]

The Lakers win a championship with KCP and trade him. The Nuggets win a championship with KCP. What’s the common denominator. He’s a winning role player

[realone]

Yes, it' cheap ownership, Kreonke's priority for next season is FC Arsenal FINALY beating Man City and winning the Premier league...however it's UNFAIR towords Jokic humself, who is top 10 All Time talent and has NEVER even had an all star teammate...lol..
Joker deserves 3-4 rings with the talent he got...

[bossbusiness]

Have y’all realized that KCP already won a NBA championship in Orlando?

Remember the bubble ?

[moderndancingfool]

The owner is generally a bad person so on one hand, him losing is something I don't lose sleep over. But those Nuggets fans? I'm glad they won that championship so they could at least experience that with their team. But even with Jokic & Murray, they have a lot more problems coming.

[drazzzpoppp]

I love KCP❤will always appreciate him helping nuggets win

[dpistons]

Denver is cooked. I could see jokic finishing with one ring like Dirk

[LiamLI-dk]

Still wondering why Lakers give up KCP, Kuzma after championship( and its whole system)

[chrisbarnes]

Magic also have the nuggets 1st round pick in the 2025 NBA draft.

[Briones]

I think they should have traded Michael Porter Jr last year and keep kcp and Bruce Brown because they need more defense and shooting they can't afford and cheap but also this new parity and the new apron and cba since they have to play Jamal Murray I agree the strange but they lose Reggie Jackson but they like Westbrook because his only 4 mil

[henryschade]

"Yay the mismatch are talking about the magic!"

Talks only about Denver

[thespot]

Lakers should have never let kcp go in my opinion

[tobyclark]

Cheap ownership is the biggest issue with the Nuggets.

[justjompingtogether]

But for me, it is about time to hone the young guys, peyton, braun and the drafted kid from Dayton.

And at the end of the end of the day.

They are A CHEAP ORGANIZATION

These moves were like the Spurs losing Bowen due to retirement.
