Shams:3-Team Deal, Bucks Get Crowder, Indiana get Nwora, Nets get 5 2nds and Ibaka

Crowder doesn't seem like a big get, but come playoffs I think it is a decent win now move. The herd things in the east and now I think the Celtics are their only threat.

By not taking on Nwora, Brooklyn saves a ton of money on Luxury-Tax payments and avoids paying him $3.2MM next season. Definitely worth losing two seconds, from their perspective.

He's an expiring too, could've just waited till the off-season to sign him.

Or you could trade a bunch of 55's now so he can help with your title run this year

"Wait for the off-season" for a contender lol wtf

I know no one cares about 2nds but 5 for a washed player like Crowder is bonkers

So Nets really just get 3 second round picks... Pacers seem to make out well then...

Yeah, pretty good haul for capspace. I guess it prevents the Nets from paying some Taxmoney.

Good point, it's actually a really big tax saving for the Nets.

For 3 picks in the 50s that will never play that you could just sign outside the draft instead? I fail to see any reason for the Nets to really do this, except to dump Crowder and hope this turns into anything.

I fail to see how that is a bad deal though.

It adds up. And I'm not a believer in Crowder as too valuable of a piece.

Who cares? They are in win now mode. Crowder fills a big hole.

Anytime you can bank picks in the 50's you almost have to!

ReddoverKobe · Post #58 » by **ReddoverKobe** » Thu Feb 9, 2023 5:40 pm

Also Nwora off the team is a net positive.
