Gary Harris, RJ Hampton and a first-round pick to the Magic for Aaron Gordon, source tells ESPN.

[RJ87]

Of course... I'm over Ainge.

[mobilija]

Is that a better deal than Smart, Langford(or)Nesmith and Boston 1st?

[cltc5]

Wonderful.  Do something besides sit and spin Ainge

[LilRip]

Of course DA missed. Maybe he didn’t want to offer Smart. Who knows? I wonder what the press con is gonna be like

[heyvik]

like I said in an earlier thread....Danny was trying to 'win' a trade with ORL therefore he LOST to Denver.

[esel1000]

Well hey at least DA can say he got Fournier.

[RJ87]

Wonderful.  Do something besides sit and spin Ainge

We got Evan Fournier who expiring and disappears in the playoffs.

[perks-a-beast]

Ummm k...Danny really couldn’t beat that offer??

I mean I love the Fournier trade, but it doesn’t help our D. Was hoping Gordon could come in and help with the that.

[BringToughnessBack]

They wanted a strong young PG with potential and got it plus more. It probably came down to Danny not wanting to give away Pritchard plus Smart and two firsts. Denver is stacked and ready to challenge.

[ChillyWilly]

Windy said Boston fans will be in their feelings over what Denver pays. He points to ownership not wanting to pay repeater.

Nope

Ainge didn't want to include Smart

I bet you his thinking is

"I took Smart one spot after AG.... So I have to give up Nesmith and a 1st also??

no way"

Imo he is a penny pincher in terms of giving up assets

[Atzar]

I'm still not sure why Orlando favored this trade tbh.  Harris hasn't been good for almost three seasons now.  Hampton is whatever.  The pick will be a late one. 

Not even talking about us right now... I'm surprised that nobody else around the NBA was willing to beat this offer.  I'm not high on Gordon really but I did think he was worth more than a platter of meh. 

[PhoSita]

Denver paid a 1st round pick, a veteran, and a young player.

Equivalent for BOS probably would've been Smart, Nesmith, and a 1st.

Not sad Danny didn't pay up.

Did Danny tell you that himself?
