If we're using our capspace to relieve these teams of $ in luxury tax, we better be getting some compensation in picks.

BK has no picks to incentivize taking on that contract.

 

[Wizard Mentor]

Miami will send Chris Andersen to Memphis in deal too

Andersen AND ZBo? Who wants to party in Memphis!

 

[Scalma]

Brooklyn should attach McCullough

 

[OSUBlazerfan]

Thad and Johnson?

 

[BlazerDuckSeahawkFan94]

What assets do the Nets have to give enticing us to eat that contract? I'd rather stand pat (even though I know it's expiring).

I'd be up for it if they added Bojan Bogdanovic

 

[KeepOnRollin]

Let's not forget that Joe Johnson can still ball. It might be Neil making a push for the playoffs.

That is an ending contract. Getting JJ IS standing pat. Probably get 2nd rounders?

But, I'd prefer Rondae + JJ for Kaman and Hendo.

He hit a game winner before the deadline too

Yeah, I don't see them giving Rondae back to us.

A 2nd rounder and Joe Johnson is better than a 1st rounder and David Lee if trying to advance in the playoffs is your goal. Hard to say what is the goal until after Thursday though.

 

[selloutking]

yea unless we are getting RHJ back I don't know I'm interested in ANOTHER trade with the nets

I think Lee would be a servicable backup 4 for when we need some down low buckets, JJ IS better though as you said, we would have a log jam at 2-3 however.

Idk we've won every time lol

Not a ton to like on BKN's roster, but taking JJ could be part of a 3-way where we get a more appealing young player and/or pick from another team perhaps? Hopefully if this deal has legs it's about more than JUST JJ...

 

[Draco]

Is there any way around us not being able to deal a 1st round pick until after the draft? Is that even true? Could we just do "future considerations" or a pick swap? I'm asking because Zack Lowe mentioned Milwaukee might part with Greg Monroe for a 1st, and he also mentioned Portland's interest.

We can trade a 2019-21 first or pick swap in 2018.

I put this in the other thread, but doesn't Cleveland want Joe Johnson. He has a huge contract we could absorb for Cleveland or other teams, then we could move him on to a contender for picks? Or maybe Mozgov since we need a rim protector?

Perhaps they do, but try to find a deal on trade machine that brings JJ into Cleveland without sacrificing pieces that would be crucial for any title run they might attempt in the next 3 years. There aren't many options, that what options there are are unattractive.

You definitely have the only 3 that the Cavs would even entertain trading. The Nets would just let JJ expire rather than bringing on a contract that has 3 more years though.

Does Varejao just suck now? He doesn't seem to get time....

 

[Draco]

Maybe we give Brooklyn Hendo and Meyers but get RHJ along with JJ. Neil loves having players on rookie contracts.

 

[BonesJones]

Idk if I'm late on this but Dwight might go to the Hornets?

 

[craigehlo]

Thad and Johnson?

I like Thad, but he makes too much for the number to work along with Iso Joe.

Guess I didn't think that one through

They are desperate to make playoffs but had been successful with jump shooting bigs.

 

[JfizzleBlazer]

I believe they could split them up into two trades.

So one trade is kaman for jj and picks.

Second trade is Henderson, Leonard, harkless for rhj and Thad young.

I wonder if Brooklyn would do this in order to rebuild?

That'd be awesome. Too bad Billy King isn't GM anymore.

I havent been down with any of the suggested trades on here because NO WAY the other teams do them (buncha homers out here)... but this fits I would pull the trigger on this trade from all POV

Best trade Ive seen so far...kudos

 

[BonesJones]

BTW that Sports Whisperers Twitter page is bogus.

 

[BonesJones]

Hornets not pursuing Dwight

 

[dviss1]

OK you convinced me

Who do you trust more? Him or Neil?

I'll go with NO.
