That championship window rapidly closing.
Well shit
We could’ve matched that…
It’s not like it was the $25M+/year that was initially being reported
Disaster
I did not want to see this happen. I don’t see a world in which we’re a better team next year. Just holding on barely to that window.
So as we sit here today…..no proven starting 2 guard on the roster and no backup point guard. Just lost our best POA defender
Alright Booth…….what do you have in the works to fix this?
Not the 76ers or the Lakers I’m at peace
Fuck me man..
That’s all it took and we wouldn’t match? Fuck
How didn’t we match 22M per year!? It’s not like he got 25m/y. And now fucking westbrick!? Fuck calvin booth for ruining jokic’s prime!
Get Paid King. Happy for you!
Might be time to hit that panic button
Bro that’s not even that much? 22 a year, super tradable contract. Please don’t tell me we are getting Westbrick and vet minimums just to stay under second apron.
Nuggets are in trouble. About to be down to 2 legitimate shooters on the entire roster.
Big sad
F
Glad we won that 2023 ring, this FO stinks.
3/66? Coulda paid him that
Shoot Booth into the sun. This off season is boarding on malpractice.
Second apron is clearly a hard cap by another name
Wow. Bad look for Kroenkes
Booth is really speed running a disastrous offseason. He spent three 2nd rd picks to move up 6 spots for Holmes, unloaded another three 2nd round picks to get rid of Reggie Jackson, and now has lost KCP.
What’re we fucking doing here man
Gary Harris flashbacks
😭😭😭😭 we’ll always have 2023
Afflalo, Fournier, Gary, Hampton, and now kcp 😢
Booth is still looking long term at the expense of the short term
I’ve been expecting him to leave anyway for a while now. No hate, get the bag. Thanks for the chip season KCP!
Apparently nuggets did match, but he still walked.
Wonder whether no income tax in Florida played a role.

It was fun my brother. Better than The Sixers or Fakers.
I know I’m in the minority.. but KCP wasn’t someone to live or die on
I’ve accepted that we probably aren’t winning another championship during Jokic tenure. I never thought I would see Denver win one so there is that and I would’ve been stoked knowing that a few years ago.
Gonna miss him, hope he balls tf out in Orlando man. Hope Booth is cooking something up cause this hurts rn.
Can’t match it, don’t blame him, no state income tax.
He was our fifth starter im fine with this. I wish him the best
I enjoyed KCP time in Denver even if it was short but I think a lot of you guys are overreacting. There were many nights last season when he was shooting subpar and his defense wasn’t making up for it. I wanted him to stay but I’m not upset he left. Put anyone in that SG position and they’re going to be solid as long as Jokic on the team.
😭😭😭😭😭
Love KCP wish this man the best. Hope he gets his in Orlando 🙏
Welcome back Gary Harris

At least he didn’t go to the Sixers. This magic team is fun to watch. Good luck, KCP
I’m happy for Orlando. If any team will appreciate him, they will. Glad he’s out of the west.
It won’t fill the hole but if this is the case I want Gary back!!
