This is the best possible outcome for a brook trade.

Marks seems to rate Russell higher than most on this board. Didnt get him in straight salary dump, had to give up assets for him and take a bad contract :(

Didn't think the nets would do this, but clearly the lakers are doing this to clear cap room for 2018. They just cleared $21 million of their cap for next year by doing this.

We get a dynamic young PG to develop and we absorb Mozgov

Very excited for the Levert and Russell pairing tho! Russell has looked like mini-Curry to me.

Hows it possible that I feel hosed by this move?

I do like Russell coming here... finally a modern day PG to enjoy(although I hate his little antics from before, POS IMO... but another day... growing pains I guess)

but that mozgov contract, we HAD to give up a first too???? ehhhhhhhhhhhh

Great trade! D'Lo is a franchise PG who can be built around! And you got him for a small fee. Taking on Mosgov hurts but not that bad.

The way I'm looking at it - we get a #2 overall prospect from 2015, swapping centers (Lopez way better than Mozgov), and give up late round pick in 2017

**** YES. Sean Marks is a boss.

I knew the Lakers would do anything to get rid of that insane contract.

Now we finally have a future star to build around!!!
