There seems to be a new way for some fans to hate their team on here every day.

Hall of Fame Window Shoppers.

They praise the Nets for offering Crabbe and Tyler Johnson max contracts, and hate the Knicks for offering a max contract to THJr, who is better than both of them.

I kinda find myself thinking that the Nets are doing what Isiah would have done if he weren't an honest to goodness idiot. He's taking on a lot of risk players that might need a change of scenery but at low salary while acquiring picks.

By far.

This is what I was getting at when the discussion comparing teams surfaced last season. I like what their current management is doing but we're farther ahead because we started turning the ship sooner and had better assets than them. It's not really a knock on their current management at all.

When you don't have much, any move that takes a chance will look better. I recall when we were there not long ago.

So the Nets turned Brook Lopez, Kyle Kuzma, and Trevor Booker into Jarrett Allen, Mozgov, Nik Stauskas, a 2nd round pick, and the former 2nd and 3rd overall picks in the 2015 draft

That's actually really good, and I don't even like Okafor

Lot of love here for a player who is a worse defender than WHG.

Another team's trash is Knick regret gold, though.

Mozgov is expensive, yet looks sort of cooked as a starting center and Okafor just isn't good. Oh, he's WHG good, but with less defense. And everyone here hates WHG now.

Nik Stauskas is good if you enjoy shooting guards who can't shoot 40%

Lopez is still a good C, Kuzma is excellent.

Allen and Russell are good. Seems like a sort of a wash.

I mean, that's way better than anyone expected them to get out of Lopez

I don't like Okafor, I think he's Al Jefferson with worse rebounding and scoring

Just imagine going back to 2015 and telling the Nets that they'd have Russell and Okafor on their team in 3 years, they'd be ecstatic

It's more a statement to how little the Nets had than anything else

It’s not love. It’s mild praise for an organization who should be a wasteland with no future.

Russell
Levert
RHJ
Allen
Jah

They got some pieces going forward.

Going into last summer did anyone see this happening?

I might be remembering this incorrectly so someone please correct me on this if I’m wrong.

Last year MIL renounced the right to Ennis and traded him to LAL. Because his rookie option was renounced, LAL couldn’t sign him to anything more than what he would make on that option.

Shouldn’t that be the same scenario with Jah?

Just trying to imagine us drafting Okafor and ending up with Trevor Booker...place would burn down.

Jah's a piece all right. You know what kind of piece.

Just because he was drafted high doesn't make him good. See Kwame Brown, Candyman and Thabeet.

I'm not sure getting Okafor even deserves faint praise.
