Those picks are going to be late first rounders. You might get a decent role player at best.

Lakers/Clippers basically gave up the same amount of picks to get Davis/George.
Its not the perfect fit, but you just have to stagger Kyrie and Harden's minutes.
For defense you can start Bruce Brown.
I can't believe Houston couldn't find a way to get Simmons in the deal.
The biggest question is Center. Jordan has to be better or maybe you start Green there instead.
Kyrie
Brown
Harden
KD
Jordan
Closing lineup you put in Green at the 5.
Also Nets can just sign a decent starting Center if they feel like Jordan is that bad. They still have a 5 million dollar exception I believe.
Center is the easiest position to fill. Warriors were starting freaking Zaza and the Lakers got away with Dwight lol.
you got no1 who can stop AD or Bron

durant continues to be the biggest coward in sports history, it's still better than winning with a 73-9 win team that had just beaten your superteam in okc though.

Even if the nets stink in three years they still are in new york and they could atract some free agents so who cares.
If i was a nets fan I will be thrilled.
It didn't work out for the Knicks. Why would for the Nets?
The Knicks have NEVER signed two superstars in their prime and traded for one in the same season, buddy.

Nba is all about matcups.
Miami is bad match up for Bucks . Miami defence is bad match up for Giannis. But this nets defence is 40+points game for giannis in 70% fg.
Holiday on harden and Giannis on Kd will slow them.
Still i fear more butler adebayo and igudala wall and defencive iq of Miami more than nets.

The picks in 25 and 27 are going to be easily lottery picks, maybe even top 5 in both.
Hell 2024 could be a bad pick depending on how KD ages and what Harden does.
The Rockets could get three straight lottery picks, maybe even three straight top 5 picks and they think this is robbery.
Nets win because they are a contender for the next 2-3 easily, but after that Rockets are getting a boatload of young talent.

If LeBron could have gotten Harden he would have signed off yesterday. Stop being salty.

KD went from
KD-Westbrook-Harden
to
KD-Curry-Thompson-Draymond
to
KD-Harden-Kyrie
and he wonders why he doesn't get credit for wins

But what centers are out there right now? Don't think you can get away with Green at C for the rest of the season, and in the playoff late rounds obviously he'd be unplayable there against teams like the Lakers.
If DJ is in at the end of playoff games, teams will just foul him. Its a way better option than trying to stop Irving/Harden/Durant.
If Green is in, the interior D will be comprimised. And the perimeter D isnt exactly stellar.

"some picks"
Didn't the Lakers and Clippers just give up a similar haul of picks?
What are the chances any of those picks become even half as good as Harden?
If they win a title its worth it.

Important to remember that the 2022 draft is being hyped as one of the deepest ever since it will essentially be a "double draft" (two years worth of prospects entering due to the NBA’s changed eligibility rules) and we have the unprotected Nets pick along with our own that year. Also worth remembering that KD and Kyrie have player options after next season, and either could decline for a multitude of reasons.

Wouldn't you want Levert to play well in a bad team to then flip down the line. No one will trade for an expiring Oladipo, nothing good at least.

Barring injury the Nets should easily win it this year. Its very repulsive though how it all unfolded. Harden and KD are *******
