What's the mechanism with the Nets out of the sign and trade?

We needed Kyrie S&T for outgoing salary for Kemba.
Now we have to use cap space to sign Rozier then trade him to Charlotte. That means we're unable to hold on to Horford's cap hold.

At least that's the way I read it.


Personally I think that's doing the C's a favor. Signing Al to $28M/yr for 4 years at this point is probably a bad idea.

If there is value for them and they are burning that bridge that's bad business.

But even so... Do you blame them? :lol:

Full MLE??

Yeah, I think so.


The full MLE expands the menu of possible centers.

We only get Capela if Butler chooses Houston though.

Screwed? What? Lol.

I'd say the Nets are screwed. Celtics will be fine. It's the order of the universe. KI should know a little something about that.

Interesting that he wants to be here after his comments mid-season...


We want to keep him, they love him.


Marcus Morris our answer at Center next year? :lol:

I'm guessing Mook is excited because he went to the market and realized no one cares much about a PF chucker.

TPE for Rozier is a NICE piece, isn't it?

Good for Jordan and the Nets. He sucks too.

Yep, seems that way. Their FA signings are done. Apart from vet mins.

Lakers are wasting all their time on leonard. The longer this drags it smells trouble for the rest of the nba.

I just don’t see Leonard with the Lakers. He’s either going to the Clips or staying. His personality doesn’t match with him going with a big three. Women always say they’d rather be with nice guys than pieces of **** and we all know how that turns out.

How do we even get TPE for Terry though, just the difference between him and Kemba? Otherwise we'd have to renounce the TPE to sign Kemba

That's not real Marcus. People are so easy to fool.
