Hey guys,Let me first say that i thought you guys got a great deal for kidd.
But i came here to ask you guys a question about nened Kristic.
Would you guys Match the Full MLE for Nened Kristic this offseason?

Of course full MLE isn't really much .

Yeah the Nets would definitely match the full MLE for him. Krstic still figures to be an important piece in the Nets' long term plan.

6 million a year. So it would be 5 yr 30 something million.
If so, What would it take to get nened from you guys?
Would you guy accpt, Blount,Dorrel Wright,2 rounder for Nened,Stromile

No way Krstic is our only big capeable of scoring without big help from our backcourt .
Blount isn't a player a want anywhere near my team and Dorrel Wright hmm hmm i'm not sold on this guy .

How about Daeqon cook? Blount,DQ for Nened,Stro

Look Blounts not even expiring , Swift is ( maybe even off the books if he's not picking up his option )
Thats the main problem about your trades even if we consider trading him not for Blount + mediocre project .

Cook doesn't offset the fact that Blount's contract is so big... Nenad is also better than Cook... I honestly don't see anything on the Heat roster the Nets want / need other than D-Wade (who the Heat won't trade) and the Heat's pick (which the Heat won't trade).

what does MLE mean?

It stands for Mid-Level Exception (it's an exception to the salary cap worth roughly $5-$6 million that each team over the salary cap is allowed to use to sign free agents).

Mid-level Exception allows a Team to take players under contracts even if they're over the cap.
It's measured by the average player salary , ~6 Million $ .

Maybe a sign and trade of Nenad and Swift for Marion, although Marion is not really a PF, we could be like the East Coast Suns next year with a lineup of:
PG Harris
SG VC
SF RJ
PF Marion
C Boone

How about Mark Blount-Udonis Haslem-2 rounder For Nenad Kristic(5 yr 32million)-Stro Swift???

Even though I like Haslem, I'm just going to be honest and say that the Nets would never take on Mark Blount's contract.
Look up Rod Thorn's past moves to see what I mean.

That's just a horrible deal all around.

Sorry dude the only piece that has any value to us that you guys have is Marion.
And we'll be happy to give you guys Nenad and Stro for him

I'd also like to up the ante and offer Lawrence Frank as well.

Adding Frank for nothing would be a deal breaker for them.............

Sorry dude no way, Marion is just barely better than RJ nothing that justifies sending Nenad as well.
