They are not trying to keep KD by trading Spencer/1st for expiring FVV as their only move.


those are awful deals for Toronto.

KD to Celts?


I think Jaylen brown called out the Nets owner though on twitter...they had some beef regarding the Kyrie situation so I doubt that trade happens.

https://www.complex.com/sports/jaylen-brown-calls-out-nets-owner-joe-tsai-over-kyrie-irving-suspension
Brown added, “Our society has more work to do, including Joe Tsai. It’s 2022, it takes ten minutes of time to see who these business owners, corporations, etc, who they’re associated with, who they’re doing business with, who they’re affiliated with. I think it’s time for a larger conversation.”

So if nets turn around and trade KD and Irving and end up with Brown and Fred, that makes sense since they dont own their picks and the cant tank

I think the Nets are trying to railroad us into this deal. F**k Brooklyn. Let them trade for Brown if they want--don't help them keep KD.

Masai could beat a Boston trade package for Kd and if he decides not to, he can watch Boston win multiple chips while we watch Spencer and Scottie battle for the play-in for the next 3 years lol

Exactly--go for KD or deal with a Western Conference team.

It would be an interesting starting line up with Claxton;

Barnes
Trent
Achiuwa
Siakam
Claxton

Defense, hypothetically, would look good but the only problem there is a lack of shooting. I think that move also decreases the need to keep Koloko, which makes me a bit sad, but we'll see what transpires in a couple of hours as I believe that the Nets have to call in a trade at that point, either with the original transaction or an altered transaction including the Raptors.


Our defense would get killed out on the perimeter.

You think Pascal is more attractive than Brown on the open market. I'm not asking who's better, even if you think or know Pascal is better, you would still take the younger wing player with just as many ch upside if not more....

Imo Brown & Ingram are more attractive than Pascal.

Even Ayton n Bridges if PHX were to ever do that

Not if we ran more a "Dwayne Casey" defence--ie. run the scorers into the shotblockers. The guards can get a lot tighter we shortblocking at the back like that.

The Raptors are not trading players for picks and expiring. They will want a good young player back.

Well it’s official now. Bet Marks called Masai’s bluff and said “fine I’ll just complete the deal without you”

Which is a good thing imo. Need to stand firm. Other teams will offer better packages than the trash BKN has

Raps should say no and just say its either a trade for Kd to us or Nets just have have to trade for Brown. We are not helping them rebuild that team for some pick 4 to 6 years out

this is silly. Nets keeping KD boosts the market for OG and Siakam in the summer
