"Hey Nikola," Jusuf Nurkic said, approaching his teammate in the locker room. "We need have conversation."

Nikola Jokic looked up from putting on his shoes and gave Jusuf a wary look. "Sure."

"Everybody on the team hate you," Jusuf stated bluntly, having already figured out the lie he would tell his teammate to hurt his feelings the most. "I organizing a fun party tonight with teammates but Nikola not invited because our hate for him so strong."

"That's fine," Nikola said, shrugging.

"Fun party with lots of women," Jusuf continued. "Here, I finding pictures of them on internet so you see what hot women you miss out on." He held up his phone to Nikola's face, forcing him to look at what was on the screen.

"Jusuf, that's just a porn video," Nikola said, raising his eyebrows at the risque scene playing in front of him. "I doubt you got that chick to go to your party."

Jusuf took his phone back angrily. "Actually, that chick and more will attending the party, but Nikola doesn't get to touch or see because he not invited to the fun party. We will also spend party time talking about hatred for Nikola and how he ruin team by suck at basketball."

Nikola smiled. "That's weird, because a bunch of the guys actually invited me out to some nightclub tonight, so if you're having a party tonight I'm not sure how many people are gonna make it. Were you not invited to that one?"

"Oh, uh, they cancelled the nightclub so they could hang out with me and we eat pizza and bang chicks," Jusuf replied quickly, his face turning red. "I was definitely invite to nightclub but teammates think my party more fun."

"I'll head down there anyway. Even if everybody cancelled so they could hang out with hot chicks at your party, nightclubs can be fun when you're by yourself too, and there's probably no shortage of hot chicks."

"Chicks hate you too. I asked them. They say your penis too small," Jusuf said angrily, feeling left out of the real party that he had apparently not been included in. "So now everybody in world hate you and everybody love me and wanting to hang out with me and hot chicks and pizza."

With this blistering retort, Jusuf left the locker room, wondering sadly which nightclub it was that his teammates were supposed to be going to.

Poor Nurkic.
 
This is a good trade. Plumlee developed here but he was still not very good defensively and we needed to improve. Nurkic IMO has more potential as a center and we are even getting a first round pick in addition. We would not be able to extend Plumlee in the Summer anyway.
 
It will be good to have Nurkic here. But there's no restaurant in Portland that serves his diet of tanned leather and lead ingots.
 
He is young and talented. There are only a few things that could make this go bad and none of them are talent.
1 would be if he got out of shape, 2 would be if he got hurt, and 3 is if he didn't get along with his teammates/coaches.

I hate getting rid of Plums, but we needed more size and if we can combine those 3 draft picks with a big contract to get a talent in return, Neil will have shut up a lot of people who said we had no flexibility. Still a big if.....
 
Love the value, but it's honestly an odd trade (for both sides). It'll be interesting to see how much Denver offers Plumlee this summer...it has to be 16mil+

I think he fits Denver's style pretty well as a back-up center too, but I find it hard to see him playing more than 15-20 min a game for them, unless they think he can play with Jokic, which I highly doubt. Just don't think a backup center is worth that kind of money.

I'm extremely disappointed that we don't play SAC or MEM any more this year. Both Meyers and Nurkic have a history of pissing off both Boogie and Marc Gasol. Nurkic loves to talk shit, but he may want to choose his targets a little more wisely:



and Meyers has a way of getting under people's skin just by merely existing.



If we do start Nurkic and Meyers together, we may have the highest piss-off-ability of any team in the league.

I'm actually fine with that.

I corrected my own. I posted the article and the quote then said oh yeah "almost". You're just being a dick about something pretty pointless so that tells me more about your character. It's all good though, I corrected myself. Not gonna continue to go back and forth with somebody like you. You win bro.

Lol. "Bro"
 
From the Nuggets' standpoint, a center rotation of Jokic & Plumlee is pretty damned solid. They have Jokic on a cheap rookie contract for two more years and plenty of salary room so they can afford to pay Plumlee next summer. Not sure if they see Plums as the starter for the rest of this season, but I think that rotation puts them in the driver's seat for the 8th playoff spot this year.
 
Sad to see Plums go. He was one of my favorites. He played hard every game for us and left it on the court. I wish him well with the Nuggets, and in his future with the NBA.

Nurkic is a young center who can bring D and points in the paint. Guy is a beast. Best thing he is still young, and has a lot of potential. I get the feeling he'll be like a more offensively inclined version of the Vanilla Gorilla. Welcome to Ripcity Jusuf!

Only the start of a weird day? What does this mean? Another trade for the Blazers? Denver is going to trade him already?
 
I think there's some potential for Plumlee playing power forward next to Jokic, at least against larger opposing frontcourts. You don't want Plumlee chasing around a small-ball power forward, but against an LaMarcus Aldridge or Taj Gibson, I think he'd do fine defensively. And Plumlee should mesh well with Jokic offensively, as both are very good passers and Plumlee doesn't require a certain area to work, like Nurkic worked out of the low post. I could see Plumlee starting at power forward in some match-ups and backing up Jokic against other teams.
