I would've sworn that this deal would have to include Lopez, maybe Marshan if boston was still interested in him, and some picks.

Not if the picks are 2016 or later... BK is going to crash hard when JJ/Pierce/KG all become washed up and they have no assets to replace them with. We've seen what happens when Deron/Brook try to carry a bunch of scrubs. Damian Lilliard happens.

There's only one basketball, and an awful lot of old guys used to getting lots of shots...


And a rookie coach trying to make it all work. It stands as much chance of being a total disaster as turning into a team that wins a chip.


Lawrence Frank is the coach. Ason Ratt is just the well paid mouthpiece. Bet his **** tan will be great though.

I'm pretty sure we'd have to find a taker for Amare in order to take in KG and Pierce.

LOL...Yeah, right. Just like the Nets were supposed to get Melo, then Dwight.

Nets are getting used for leverage again. They are the nerdy kid at school that a mediocre chick will flirt with to make themselves feel better. (yeah, I know. The Knicks have been there too)

Great. Then we can complain about more broken-down vets in Knicks uniforms when KG goes on a minutes limit.

It was so much fun this past season.

The Nets are sacrifing their future for two soon to retire players. Adding KG and Pierce won't get the Nets past the prime teams in the East. Horrible trade for both teams.

I would consider Chandler/24 for Pierce and KG... I'm not sure Chandler's shelf-life is all that longer than KG's. But why would Boston want Tyson?

I don't think Opie could control that team, either.

You guys are bugging if you don't think the Nets are better than the Bulls & Indiana & especially us if this goes down. They would literally have 5 All Stars starting, plus not to mention they complement each other so well. Not to mention Deron Williams is gonna be so much better than he was last season considering he won't be injured.

If this goes down you can easily argue that the Nets > Heat, heck I can see them being the best in the East. There's a lot that has to go right including coach, age, & adjustments but if it does this team is made to beat the Heat & to piss Knicks fans off. This... is war.
My lifetime better have a Knicks championship.

That is gross for Boston.

Look, can we all just let the Nets self destruct in peace and quiet.

If this goes through the Nets are the second best team in the East easily. Give credit where it's due. Trading hump and Wallace for pierce and KG is such a smart move bring in vets with a Rookie coach who know how to win. Makes all the sense in the world. Nets are in win now mode who cares about the picks they need guys ready to contribute. If its this years pick this draft isn't that talented. Gerald Wallave can't stay healthy and hump was out of the rotation if I'm the nets I make this deal 10/10 times.
