Boykins To Milwaukee
So the Denver Nuggets and the Milwaukee Bucks made a trade - Earl Boykins and Julius Hodge For Steve Blake. My message to the Nuggets: What the hell?!!!
Ok so Denver did it from a business point of view to try to get some breathing room from the luxury tax they’re paying. Milwaukee needed some backcourt scoring help since they lost guys like Redd and Mo Williams to injuries.. I guess both teams had their reasons but I still can’t help from screaming about what Denver just did.
It’s a good thing Denver has the two leading scorers in Melo and AI plus a great offensive player in JR Smith too. Boykins was always an important scorer for the Nuggets especially in crunch time and the Bucks will benefit from his presence greatly. I think Hodge is a nice offensive bonus too. The Nuggets get a decent player in return in Steve Blake but he’s definitely no Boykins. I guess the idea is to give AI and Melo more ball to move around. But in the meantime, while Melo is still suspended, the Nuggets are sure going to miss Boykins.

I’M SORRY THAT BOYKINS IS NO LONGER WITH THE NBA, HOWEVER, I AM GLAD TO SEE THAT IS PLAYING BASKETBALL PROFESSIONALLY SOMEWHERE.
IF HIS WORTH WASN’T APPRECIATED HERE, HE DID WHAT HE HAD TO DO. I SAY, GOD SPEED BOYKINS. GO FOR IT. DD
