Crowder has to go. Curry likely gets dealt as well. Maybe Royce & Harris (if anybody wants him). Simmons I think we now wait out in a lower pressure environment & see if he can improve next year.

Man we REALLY should have taken the Jaylen Brown deal in the off season.

Marks made a huge mistake not doing that. Imagine we had Jaylen right now. Sheesh.

I think we need to have a fire sale tomorrow.

Way too many role players on this roster right now.

I would honestly trade anyone including Dinwiddie and DFS.

Curry, Mills, Royce should def be traded asap.

Nets are cooked. Franchise may never recover. Love you you guys are acting like trading Kevin freaking Durant for nothing is no big deal.

This is a pretty good deal for a 34 years old KD

If the team was gonna rebuild, then what was the point of that Kyrie trade??

Ughh I'm so sick.

In this case how the f is Joe still here ? Marks trading away KD and Kyrie and Joe and Ben it’s still here , like seriously wtf

I would guess Kyrie got traded first because Durant didn't react at the time, same as usual. Only a few days later did he decide he was out, and that's how that works.

We can all thank Kyrie for asking out with only six days left, of course. Too bad Marks isn't a mind-reader, huh?

And I would guess Joe & Ben are still here because their value is squat, right now. What are the Nets supposed to do, give away picks just to get them gone?

Yeah, we’d be worse off with a guy who dislikes him. Brown openly stated he dislikes Tsai.

We’re perfectly fine getting a great young shooter and best 3&D wing in the league. Unprotected picks in 2027, 2028, 2029.

imo he gets way overrated on this board because he can score. and he's unsigned needing a bigger contract than bridges. and he has some kyrie krazy in him. id rather have bridges + cam than jaylen.

and further we know smart wasnt included in the boston offer -- and cam johnson is probably just as valuable of an asset to get as smart.

i dont think any team had better unprotected picks to get than phoenix. bridges is on one of the best contracts in the nba. cam johnson is another up and coming wing. bridges is super high character and a winner since nova.

this team has an identity that fits right in with jacque vaughn and a ton of assets going forward.

No. For what? It’s a good rotation to develop a defensive identity and stay competitive. Why deal guys who been here and on contract friendly deals?

Crowder, Royce, Mikal, Finney Smith next to Claxton will be a huge step forward for a defensive minded team unless some team is willing to deal a quality pick back.

That’s exactly what they gonna do , just watch picks flying of the shelves along with our bad contracts

crowder will be traded or bought out.

it wouldnt shock me if one of the guys above gets dealt. curry makes the most sense to trade since its hard to see him getting extended. i wouldnt be surprised to see simmons gone too, though im not sure there's urgency to do that (or a team that wants him).

mills probably sticks around because he's a solid vet who can handle the ball.

i could see 1 of dfs/oneal traded if someone offers a first since the nets have so much wing depth now and should probably keep starting cam thomas for a while.

or maybe they are fine bringing both those guys off the bench as a backup unit. or maybe they want to play cam in 6th man role.

This was a better deal than what Boston offered, especially given Brown's outspoken nature and criticism of Tsai. Plus I don't love that Brown will hit FA without his team being able to give him similar money in an extension.

It will be lower when Crowder and other vets are moved.

Yeah, that bubonic-plague pessimism is ridiculous. This sounds like a WAY BETTER trade than anyone offered for KD this summer. Just blows Boston's right out of the water.

Also fantastic timing to get some good hauls for two injury-prone, expensive players on the wrong side of 30, one of whom brings endless toxicity & drama to his team.

Great opportunity now for the Nets to see what they have, see how players mesh, and make some adjustments in the summer without having to be held hostage by 2-3 planet-sized egos.

Back to BRK-grit and team-ball, I hope! :D

I'm obviously ecstatic for the Suns to get KD but the Nets have two very good role players added here.

Bridges should have been DPOY last season and his offensive game is getting better and better. Johnson is a legit 6 man and one of the best 3 point shooters in the league. Crowder is a twat but who cares.

If the Nets can find a way to draft/sign a star they can still be a very good team.

Sean Marks deserve to hang. He’s been terrible this entire time. Tsai been a liar this entire time(only religion is winning. yet every chance to improve the team chose not to for money reasons. Nash obviously was a terrible coach.

Worst front office ever. No other front office would’ve failed.

yep. and who knows maybe they get lucky and that star is cam thomas. or claxton. or ben (lol).

if not they have a lot of draft picks all of a sudden. and will probably gain some more tomorrow.

Why would you want another weirdo here after dealing with Kyrie for 3 years ?
