Getting paid to tank is nice

That's about the going rate for non-shooting C's. Poeltl, Adams, Allen, Capela, all around that same level. Collins is worse and is sub 20M, so there's your cutoff... ish.

Good signing, he's a valuable C and now inked through his prime.

Excellent defensive big with real value as an off ball finisher. Good deal, and if the Nets are able to turn some of these newly acquired picks into something good, he’ll be on board to help a winning team as well by the end of the deal.

It’s an okay deal for us

Hopefully keep Sharpe as I actually think he’s got more upside in today’s game

Cooper Flagg has secured his lob threat for next season!

He should’ve been a finalist for DPOY. His impact is far more impressive than Gobert this season. He deserves it and it will be wonderful watching him help Clowney developing. I don’t think we’ve ever had two legit athletic shot blockers together. Clowney had a 7 block game and Clax had 5. They can work together for years to come.

Good deal and decent contract.He a nice piece to have that's still young enough at 25 that can be apart of the team when they start winning again or could be flipped in a year or two on a even better looking contract once the new NBA league contracts kick in.

He's a beast in pick n roll on 2k if that means anything

Surprised he didn't test free agency

Signed just to move him at some point.

Pretty good deal, should be easily moveable down the line.

Nope. They have something special with him and clowney. Rim protection at an elite level. Now, they can add Flagg or Edgecombe.

didn't he say he wanted to win at the end of the season when they asked him about his future as a Net? :lol:

He got $100M reasons to stay. Quite frankly it's a movable deal as he's gonna be 25 next season and if he becomes at least a 70% FT shooter then teams will be lining up for him.

Good on him for getting that bag.

Sounds like a lot tbh. If they gonna tank they should have traded him for more assets and used the cap for even more assets
