He fits in perfectly here as a guy who can do everything Dantae Jones did plus he's a decent option on the offensive end of the court. If he can handle 20-25 minutes a night JR continues in his role of burning the other team's bench. I really like what the Nuggs did in adding him and Lawson, who is going to prove to be a high impact player as early as this year. This guy is going to surprise some people.

Remember a couple years ago when cats really wanted Afflalo? He wouldn't give him up, and there were some good offers for him at the time. Now he finally gives him up for a future second round pick and some doritos. GTH outa here man. Dumars been makin’ me mad lately. Remember a couple years ago when cats really wanted Afflalo?

I don't think Joey Dumars wanted to move him, because in so many ways he's a poor poor man's Dumars. Defensive stopper, more athletic than you think and capable on offense. If you look back to last season whenever the pistons made a run in a game afflalo was on the court and normally involved in sparking it. Great pick up by the Nugs.

He has enough quickness to guard an average point guard and enough strength to guard a shooting guard, plus he can knock down the open 15 footer and get to the line a little bit. I can see him helping Melo out alot by checking the other teams best front court player, plus Billups is getting a little older and slower.
