:lol What are the nets doing??

Its like they want to make up all the picks they lost in those boston\kg\pierce deals and think getting them all in this draft is gonna fix that
Or maybe they want to be like Presti, except all in one draft except multiple 1st in 5 straight drafts

5 1st rounders.....Alright, lets see what happens

I mean, this has to be some kinda of stockpile to trade for a star, right?

Like they are gonna call the bucks and give them all 5 picks, claxton, cam thomas and future firsts for Giannis?

Or maybe the cavs and offer them all those picks for and filler for Dovovan mitchell??

Either way, theres no way they are collecting those picks to use them all tomorrow

Could see them trading one of the 25 for a 26 pick…
A scoring guard.. never heard of one. :roll:

I would guess the Nets are exploring multiple trade ups?

Like 8 and 19 and a player for 3 and then 22, 26 and 27 for like 10?

Cam Johnson and a couple of picks is a nice package.

I think thats the only way they MIGHT be able to get to 3

8+19+any other player on their roster is not enough to get to 3

That's what I'm guessing a deal would look like...

Oubre 8.3M
Drummond 5M
Gordon 3.4M
3rd overall pick

for

Johnson 21.0M
8th overall pick
one of the other 1sts the Nets have, whichever one

They should trade them for future 1sts to spread them out, if they can get min. protection on the futures. like the 19th for a top 7 protected.

That trade hasn't even happened yet, probably won't happen... and I think it subtly makes Miami worse anyway.

WcJ
Herro

Ware

Twin towers plus twin scorers and a 3pt shooting PG. On paper its scary but when you look at the names then yeah... soft without Bam

No depth either.
They might have to do something though, I could see Brooklyn's 19th up for grabs for someone who wants WCJ, right in front of MIA @ 20.

Why does Miami value Jovic so much? The guy stinks. He’s had one good game against us in 3 years.

We could do the funniest thing ever... 25+ Jett for 19? Get WCJ lol

But depth... they still have Jaime and Wiggins.. yeah other fans see them as average at best but for MIA fans they cost multiple frps plus good players

Don’t even know if that’s worth doing for BRK…Ace Bailey?
