Can I ask whats up with Whitehead? I thought he wasnt able to showcase his stuff during his Duke career. With you guys injury/trades, wouldve thought he plays even for the tank


Very slow recovery from a major injury

Playing G League & shooting is pretty awful

also shout out to cleaning up the turnovers at the game went, finishing with a 'normal' 13.
They just beat the Bucks 3 days ago. They need to trade a few more players to tank.

Russell will roll in their and probably put up big numbers…he’s an expiring, so he’s not going to press pause unless they start working on a re-up deal right away.

Finney-Smith is easily the player the Nets need to move. He would be a great fit on the Magic with M-Wagner out.

Ooof. I forgot…if he’s going to miss time, I can’t even imagine…that’s literally our top 5 guys…Goga entering the argument with a bullet. KCP not a factor in that convo.

Could get real ugly…even Paolo’s return would certainly be compromised without Suggs.

They need to move Cam Thomas out. Like Cole, dude has the ability to win games by himself and hurt their tank.

Cam Johnson is the one that can net in the most rewards though

Win-win.

DFS plays for a contender, Nets get someone who expires and can shoot them out of a game for the tank, DLO can go YOLO and fool a team to signing him next season thinking he can contribute,Lakers get froncourt help and a contributor while opening time for their guard spots, lakers will be under 11m i think

We often criticize WeHamPark, but no one could say with a straight face that this isn’t a masterclass list of moves.

Suggs
Wagner
Banchero
Bitazde
TDS
Black

Even Queen to an extent.

No GM will be perfect and there will be some misses, but we as fans can’t really complain haha
