Charlotte trades #4, #34, Green, Nurkic for #8, #12, Vucevic, Lonzo
Brooklyn trades #8, #26, Cam Johnson for #4, Green, Nurkic
Chicago trades #12, Vucevic, Lonzo for #26, #34, Cam Johnson

Charlotte moves back to fill out their bench with two vets and two picks. Purely speculating on what those picks could be but a rotation like this one looks appetizing: Melo/[Jakucionis]/Miller/Bridges/Mark + Lonzo/Mann/Okogie/[CMB]/Vucevic + NSJ/Jeffries/Diabate as insurance

Brooklyn moves up for Bailey (or another target) they won't reach at #8.

Chicago adds a more productive forward, reunited with college teammate Coby White

BK is getting destroyed in this deal.

No they aren't.

Who is Green? Josh Green? If so, would you trade your best player for him on your team? They for sure do not need Nurkic. They have Claxton and Sharpe.

So they give away their best player and get nothing of value in return and have to give up 8 and 26? They really just get the 4th pick for Cam Johnson 8 and 26. Make it make sense to them.

Green is salary filler for Cam Johnson. The value is moving up from #8 to #4.

Yeah, that's exactly the cost of moving up from #8 to #4, Cam Johnson + Pick #26.

I do not think the Nets want to do this. It just wouldn't be something Marks would do. He always wants to get a good deal and not look like an idiot. This would not help him with that mission.

I don't think he would be an idiot for making this move. I guarantee most people wouldn't think he would be an idiot for making this move, especially if he can get his #3 player on his board for this value.

The simpler version is this:

#4/Filler for #8/#19/Cam Johnson

I do not think these teams are a match for this deal. The filler that INDY would give would have to be a very good player. I guess it depends on who that player is. What young players do they have to deal in this trade. It would likely have to be a young promising player under 25 so it makes sense for their new rebuild.

Do Nets fans not value the #4 pick? This trade seems pretty fair for all parties really.

The Bulls aren't getting destroyed in this, but they ain't doing it

Johnson had an excellent season, finally. He's 29 years old maybe due a max contract in 2 years at age 31
Lonzo Ball is 28, tell me about his injuries and admit that Johnson has only played 60 games in a season 2 of 6 NBA seasons
The Bulls aren't on the cusp of a title
to give up #12 and end up at #26 and #34 with #45, is slow building which is the opposite of what Cam is

forget the Bulls on this one

Cam Johnson is worth a lotto pick by himself or 2 1sts - even 2 1sts and a swap most teams would do especially after the Bane deal.

So, why would you also have to add two 1sts to just move up 4 spots? It if were 19 and 26 that is different. The hypo here was insane. It had 8 and 19 for 4 and then Cam J for crappy guys. It didn't add up.

I suggested PWill/#12/Port pick for CamJ and #19

I suggest you never say PWill to BK ever. It won't ever happen. He is the opposite of the type of player Jordi and Marks want.

No from Brooklyn, we can get better deals
