  1. Im Not going to Celebrate until its final I thought so called Press thought he was going to the Suns.

  2. This year has to top the number of absurd takes I’ve seen. I’ve never seen so many people bitch and moan for trading a player who didn’t want to be here, let alone being remotely efficient on the court.

    People shitting on the team and talking like Bones was posting efficient numbers and our main driver off the bench. The bench has always sucked, with or without Bones. Let’s see how TB helps the bench. FYI homie just flew in for all the people saying “Wow we brought TB only to backup DAJ”

  3. Pure speculation but Denver could offer him a much bigger role than Phoenix, so he probably preferred this situation.

  4. – Bones, Reed, 1 SRP

    + Thomas Bryant, Reggie Jackson

    grade mcNuggets deadline/ buyout acquisitions.

  5. Dumped the childish prima Donna and signed TB & Reggie Jackson? Team vibes are at an all time high

  6. Wow. Reggie, TB, Bruce, Vlatko, Zeke and a Jamal stagger. Let’s see how it works out but goddamn we might have a functioning second unit

  7. Low key worried about Reggie pulling an Iggy on us and giving our plays and strategies to the Clippers in a series

  8. Hey man… Bones + Davon + a second for Reggie Jackson and Thomas Bryant, even if just for half a season of them, is an absolute W

  9. From a Clippers fan in the buyout thread “Great pickup for ya’ll. His issue for us was being asked to do too much. As a 12-15 MPG guy off the bench, he can knock down open shots, bring some vibes, and occasionally just make big plays. Take care of him!”

    YOOOO

  10. Went to the suns subreddit to see their reaction to the Reggie news and in the comments they were talking about how Barton needs to be a high priority now since Reggie’s off the market lol

  11. After Bruce Brown took a discount to come here, and now securing one of the top players in the buyout market, I think we can officially say Jokic is a big draw for free agents.

    Who knows what happens with BB, Reggie, and Bryant in the offseason, But I think with Denver and Jokics reputation, and Calvin Booths flawless handling of it all thus far, I am not worried.

  12. Is it safe to say we won’t see Jamal till after the break? Seems like they’re playing it safe even if it’s the other knee and getting him ready for the final stretch
