Excellent signing.

King is now shaping the team to Hollins' liking.

2 more moves are left to be made.

I'm really happy that we're getting more hungry younger guys who want to push this organization forward. Even if he falls short, you can't help but cheer TRob on


Definitely, hard to not root for a guy like this.
Do we have any shot at bringing in Gerald Green?

I'm actually rooting for T-Rob to do well for you guys. Sixers fans liked him alot, he played his ass off for us. 12/10 is very possible considering he averaged about 9/8 on the sixers in under 19 mpg.

Dude wants to be here in the worst way. Great pickup. lot of young active bodies on this team now. Hollins may be able to take this kid to the next level.

With TRob it's a no brainer for sure.
His stock has no place to go but up.

Wasn't expecting this, Nets front office doing all the right things this offseason. All we need is to trade Johnson and Jack and we're good to go.

YES! Finally!

Love that we got a rebounder and a more traditional PF in here amongs all the tweeners, stretch 4s, converted wngs, etc...

I dont hvae huge expectations for him but i can see him being a 9/9 player in 25 minutes. also adds in anothter hard working guy to the mix.

Trading dwill, moving jack for a first rounder, and letting jj expire would make this an amazing offseason IMO.

dwill helps us most if moved, jack gets us most value, JJ would ahve the biggest impact on winning this year if kept and expires.

Jack isn't netting us a 1st pick. We'd be lucky to trade him to a team with cap space and get a heavily protected (faux) second round pick back.

Yeah, I keep JJ if we can dump D-Will and Jack.

Like it or not, Billy King has really made some smart, heady moves considering the circumstances. If he can pawn off one or both of the the albatross deals, my god

I don't hate it...Like the fact we are stacking our team with young guys with upside...now only job is to develop them....I also really hope that this doesnt affect Chris getting playing time this year unless Trob balls out...

we had a first round pick agree to with washington before the okc trade for reggie jackson fell through.

jack is now an expiring. i dont see it as unlikely at all we could get a first for him at the deadline
