If you replaced Jamal Murray with Trae Young would the Nuggets be better or worse? (alien.top)

Basically the title. Replace Murray with Trae. Contracts stay the same. Are the Nuggets better or worse now? I’m talking about Trae Young of the Atlanta Hawks by the way

Okay bro, I have to ask- why the Doc Rivers flair?

Their account is 9 years old. If they joined this place when they created their account then Doc Rivers was the hot acquisition that a lot of people felt help legitimize the team. It was one thing to draft Blake and trade for CP3, but Doc was the first real massive get who wanted to come to the Clippers.

People are memeing his last few years there, and OP may just be memeing as well, but Doc's failure with the clippers has really overshadowed just how huge getting Doc was his first few years there. From 2010 to 2013 the Clippers went from a legitimate joke franchise with a history with less success than the current Hornets, to a destination franchise that had a stacked top 2 and legitimate coach who were primed to compete for years.
