What NBA Twitter was saying about Aaron Gordon’s trade to Nuggets: ‘One of the most overrated players in the league’

The Miami Heat won the NBA trade deadline acquiring Victor Oladipo and Nemanja Bjelica. The Denver Nuggets came in second acquiring Aaron Gordon and JaVale McGee.

Please tell me just how close Boston was to getting Aaron Gordon. I’m gonna pretend to be surprised.

Aaron Gordon would’ve made way more sense for the Blazers than Norm Powell. With Dame and CJ, Portland already has enough offensive firepower. What the Blazers lack is a switchable on-ball defender who can plug and play on offense, and thrive on the short roll. Gordon was ideal. https://t.co/pds52jfzgg

Aaron Gordon is 25 in real years, but 75 in trade rumor years.

Jokic throwing lobs to Aaron Gordon will be beautiful to watch.

I like Aaron Gordon and the fit for Denver, but there is no universe whatsoever where acquiring him should shift their championship odds to this degree. https://t.co/ONPfKMjyHU

Aaron Gordon is one of the most overrated players in the league lol

It had to hurt Tim Connelly to lose RJ Hampton. He REALLY liked him. But that seems like a good price tag for Aaron Gordon. Nuggets are very intriguing.

I think Aaron Gordon in a defined role with Jokic next to him and Murray on the perimeter can be really good

Aaron Gordon is underrated, he’s gonna be so good for Denver

.@davidaldridgedc saying #Nuggets are “smart money” to acquire Aaron Gordon.

That is the same sense I’ve gotten talking to numerous people last night and this morning.
