Dooling has value in this league. I can’t say the same thing about Hunter. Hunter has been getting minutes; and he has proven one thing, he's an athletic stiff. While I understand how he could struggle on the offensive end, as many big players do; I question why he can't grab a few more boards, or block a few more shots? He's built for it...maybe he's just not willing to work for it...<BR/><BR/>I don't know one way or the other how JR Smith played into the deal. Personally I think we would have been robbing the Nuggets if we would have got both Smith and Evans for Dooling and Garrity. But if the trade was Evans, for Dooling and Garrity; I thought that was fair. Dooling would fit in great with Denver next to AI, and Garrity is an expiring contract. <BR/><BR/>Oh well, enough talking about that for me; because it's not going to happen.OVERWADEDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05622480986286528477noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4299043369682981256.post-4257277293472402562007-09-12T12:45:00.000-04:002007-09-12T12:45:00.000-04:00That is a very possible scenario, so well put.

They realized they could get more for Evans than just Dooling and Garrity. The fact that the Magic (apparently) wanted J.R. Smith made it an even worse trade scenario for Denver, as it would be giving up the two best players in the trade.Ben Q. Rockhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12451831236977005116noreply@blogger.com
