S.A.S. Rumor (Blockbuster)

[Legacy]

But why would the Nets do such a stupid trade. They are losing 2 superstars and a future all-star for only 1 superstar. If the Nets acctually do this trade they must have alot of confidence in Richard Jefferson because when KG retires or looses his touch, they will need RJ to play at an extremely high level.

Jesus, that's a great trade for Minnesota

<div class="quote_poster">Quoting J_Ray:</div><div class="quote_post">I think this would be good deal if they keep Jefferson, sure they'll be ok but they have Antoine Wright to replace VC. Only thing that I don't get is how come Kristic is in this offer? I think they need to keep Kristic.....</div>

Maybe you should watch a Nets game before making a comment like that. Wright isn't fit to play in this league.

Dude....he's a rookie, not all rookies can come in and play like LeBron or Melo. He came from a place where he wasn't winning and did his own thing, give him a chance to learn some stuff

The Nets would be crazy to do this trade, Garnett is great, but he is getting old. There are lots of good young PF's in the draft with potential, I'd rather take a chance on one of them, and you dont lose anyone for it.

This trade really doesn't help either team. Both teams aren't getting any younger with this and Kidd and KG want to play together, not get traded for one another

Thanks for the info shapecity, I stand corrected. But I still feel that giving up Kidd is too much pf a price to pay. A Kidd/KG/Jefferson I think would be the best scenario for the Nets. And as for Kidd looking old at times, That would be the case for a lot if they can do what he has done, he may not score a lot but he compensates with his passing, rebounding and his leadership. at 6"4, he battles for rebounds against 7 footers, at 33 he got more triple doubles than any other player in the NBA, he averages over 35 mins a game, he plays though injury, what do you expect? Kidd is a hardworker and you've got to respect a player like that. Bringing KG in will be a big one, but shipping out Kidd will be disaster for the Nets. Carter may have led the Nets in scoring, but Jason Kidd is the Nets' leader.

Great points Njnetz and nextlevelgame!

Please, do not make this trade.

I heard that this whole rumor turned out to be false. Anyone know?

 

[TheFreshPrince]

That makes sense that it was false, minny doesnt get younger and without kidd, the nets would be a playoff team in the 5-8 seed range. No doubt though that KG would just be a monster in the east, the nets would need kidd to make this team work, and minny would need some younger pieces or draft picks
