They won't, you know that better man. Also why give up Din when he fits our team better and already knows what it is. If we spending money why not Din?

Some people be loving to trade anyone just for the sake of it or to bring their fave bum over here. Din is home grown and is huge part why we in this position.

Both KD and Kyrie brittle af, I have no trust in them continually stay healthy. Din is essential for and thinking Shamet or TJ can replicate what Din brings on the table is beyond laughable.

Tired of saying same thing over again. Tsai said he's willing to spend, well let's see where he is with that this offseason. Thats of course if Din willing to resign and stay here. ( why won't he? )

A few things, Din can opt out and sign elsewhere for 20M plus so would u want to lose him for nothing or get something for him?

We are a contender right now, you have to do everything possible to win it right now and worry about next year later, just get this one ring out the way. this is the most important task at hand, get guyss that will help contribute to that goal, and Din is out for the year so he can't help with that.

I love Din as much as anyone, but with Harden and Kyrie here, we really don't need another dominant ball handler. And Din is best with the ball in his hands, he is not an off the ball player at all. And then u add KD into the mix, when will he ever get the ball? I mean he would help when KD and Kyrie goes down for rest. But we need guys that will do best off the ball such as shooting and defending.

TJ is doing a tremendous job off the bench for 15 minutes. We can get another guard like that. Kendrick Nunn isn't a bad idea because he can do what TJ does off the bench. But Powell would be the absolute perfect guy for this squad IF Raps are giving him up. He can be an off the ball guard and he defends. But if raps are not giving him up then idk who else we would want from them if it isn't OG or Boucher.

How is Drummond better than DJ? Hes a better rebounder but DJ is much smarter defensively.

I'd way rather play DJ is a playoff series than Drummond.

Reddick is not washed lol. He's an elite shooter who could absolutely help is in a playoff game. How is that not helpful?

Drummond plays better defense and grabs more rebounds. Have you watched DJ play at all? Hes a smart defender, come on man. If we dont get Drummond, he may go to the Lakers and that will be a team we wont be able to beat.

And JJ Reddick is a 36 years old player averaging 40% FG and 36% from beyond the arc, his 3s only fall in regular season and hes invisible coming into playoffs. Moreover, his defense is one of the worst in the league, he surely wont get any playing time beyond regular season so its just waste of rosters spot.

Hello Brooklyn wrote:Who cares about JJ's stats this one year on a bad team? We know hes an elite shooter.

So what if he only plays during the regular season? We need minutes while Shamet and Kyrie are out. Who exactly are we going to get off the buy out market that will play meaningful minutes in the playoffs.

Probably no one.

He was an elite shooter, but is he still now? Hes 36 years old now, just look how much PJ Tucker regressed at that age and you'd not be so optimistic at him making shots in the playoffs. Also even if hes still an elite shooter, what about his defense? In the playoffs you cant afford to have a defensive liability with a role player.

Now reports are he’ll sign with Lakers? That’s concerning because I don’t see how the Nets would matchup with Drummond/Lebron/AD/Kuzma. They’d get pounded on the boards and good luck giving multiple second chance points to Lebron/AD. I don’t know what Marks has up in his sleeve the next couple of days but it has to be good.

Just did little research on him, hard pass.
