Re: Official Nets Trade Spculation Thread
It’s doubtful marks does anything at the trade deadline other than open a roster spot. The only tradeable asset we have really is Claxton but that would hurt our defense significantly. Problem is we will lose him in the off-season for nothing but what teams have interest? What players are potential buyouts since that is the most likely area we find our players otherwise. The player I really want is Eric Gordon. He would really elevate our game come playoffs.

Or a paint protector as the perimeter defense is never gonna be isolation great, so at least we can lock up the paint a more. We also scheme pretty well.)
Also if we are using the TPE’s. We have two that fit right into high rotation players salaries. Starters.
Either way I’m hoping for a starting traditional defensive center with high Defensive rebounding percentage. A backup of the same ilk. Of course more 3&D wings.
Would package Joe and whatever else for the core member.
Would use the TPE’s on 3&D wings. Either 2 or split the 11.3 for 3.
Carter and Brown would either for a backup center or another 3&D depending if Sharpe had to be moved along the way. It would suck but nowhere near as bad as not having 48 minutes of defensive rebounding and spacing come playoff time. The future is only as along as we have Durant-Harden-Kyrie(contract length and amount Joe should be always mentioned with them and he’s not).
It really does suck we walked into the season with this roster. I never seen a Big3 have such an ill fitting support cast around them. Individually good players but designed only if literally everything is going ideally. If Blake and Paul regain their 3ball while no defense or rebounding concerns are remotely answered Bruce/Bembry/Nic/Johnson all suddenly look great. But what type of team brings in multiple role players that need other role players to perform? Not off stars but other role players.
Everything in this post is complete opposite to what been said
I’m saying it tho. Like there’s no quote. There’s no reference to another post. I’m saying what’s wrong with the team, why and what they need to fix it.

I would trade Joe for Eric in a heartbeat.

Hmm, is that absolutely certain?
He's played in so few games comparatively that I would imagine his bargaining position isn't great. Unless of course he finishes the year out super-strong. Otherwise, can't he be S&T'd for some assets in the offseason?
Sure is depressing seeing the team make smart draft choices in Fro and Clax, seeing them develop over the years, only to lose them for almost nothing in the end.

that, and a boatload of picks and pick-swaps, and levert iirc
my impression was that fro was mostly tossed in there because marks knew the nets couldn't afford his next contract, and it helped generate one more pick from the cavs to help sweeten the deal.
houston didn't even get fro, for crying out loud

Sharpe's not a scratch of the perimeter defender Clax is, but those screens. I think it was you who made the observation that he might be a better pick and roll partner for Harden for that reason. The other day he fking dropped someone at the top of the 3pt line. It's not often that you see a defender hit the hardwood on a legal bog standard ballscreen.

I would too but they are looking for a FRP so a rookie would also have to be involved.

Kyrie and Joe Harris for De'Aron Fox and Buddy Hield and a Sacramento 1st round pick, who says no?

Fox sucks and is making way too much money. AND you want to throw in Joe Harris?
For buddy Hield?
I wouldn't even consider it.

Re: Official Nets Trade Spculation Thread
As crazy as Kyrie is hes still a killer.
Man had 27 last game despite not playing for 6 months.
Hes in far better basketball shape than Harden whos been playing for months.
Once the mandate is gone we will get him back full time. I'm not trading him.
Him and KD are still our future.

Re: Official Nets Trade Spculation Thread
If Harden's agent is putting this out there, I think the Nets need to have a sit down and consider making a move now, because frankly Kyrie is not going to budge, and Nash isn't getting fired.
If Harden is really serious, I propose Harden to Philly for Simmons, Curry, and 2 protected firsts.
No hard feelings on my end. I don't blame Harden for wanting to leave. Between Marks hiring an inexperienced coach, and Kyrie being unreliable, this is not a championship team. Adding Simmons as PG and having Kyrie, KD, Harris, Mills, Curry + the rest of the team should still help us to compete.
and no, I don't like Ben Simmons. But this is going to become another distraction and we already have one huge elephant in the room.

Re: Official Nets Trade Spculation Thread
Nets will need to free up a roster spot if Kessler is going to be on the playoff roster. The most obvious potential roster spots are Carter and Millsap. Claxton and Brown are also possibilities. With few picks and no cash available, what's the trade to free up spots?

Kyrie will play home games by March or sooner. The pandemic is all but over. Many countries already calling it a pandemic. UK lifted all restrictions. NY cases down. No way i trade any of the big 3. you have to roll the dice they are healthy and playing by playoffs and live with it if they dont. we will NEVER have a better shot at a championship then this trio.

Hard pass. I would need Simmons routed to a 3rd team for a Jaylen Brown level play + one guanteed lotto pick in the 22 draft on top of the 2 philly picks.
I wouldnt trade harden if he outright said tommorow he wont be back and will sign with Philly. We wont ever get a chance this good at a title again.

I think we get considerably worse with that trade. Simmons makes us really bad on offense. you dont need to defend him at all. defensively his impact is next to nothing in the playoffs where you switch everything. they will just hunt joe harris or mills on switches.
II'd rather let harden walk then trade for simmons
