Nets Trade:
Devin Harris
Pick#10, 21
Stromile Swift
KVH

Nets Receive:
#1 Pick
Larry Hughes

Clippers Trade:
Elton Brand

Clippers Receive:
Devin Harris
Pick #10, 21
KVH
Stromile Swift

Bulls Trade:
#1 Pick
Larry Hughes

Bulls Receive:
Elton Brand

Seemed fairly reasonable to me, just a random thought that occurred to me while reading draft stuff on the internet.
 
Ummm Take Larry Hughes out and put someone else instead and get back at me.
 
Larry Hughes :S

It does seem possible, but not plausible. Will the Bulls risk the pick on Brand? A Hinrich, Gordon, Deng, Brand, Chandler (ohshit) lineup sounds nice. (You'd obviously change Brand to Gooden and Chandler to Brand).
 
Hughes makes 12mill a year and has 3 years left in his contract BTW.
 
This is a ridiculous trade proposal. Harris, Brand, and both of the picks would have to be coming to the Bulls, and even that might not be enough.

Cute.

Did you want to send the first for Nowitzki? Brand fits your needs more than Nowitzki.

I could see the 21 going to the Bulls, but nothing more.
You get brand, and you get rid of Hughes. This is near perfect for you.
 
Either give us Kirk Hinrich, or no deal!

Seriously tho, Kirk would be nice. Or maybe Luol Deng. Or maybe a combination of the 2, with us giving Chicago RJ? Chitown fans know they want RJ!

Right... do you also want MJ and a time machine with that?

Ehhhhh I would but I figured that would be a little too good to ask for. I feel like the added icing of this trade in dumping Hughes makes this almost impossible for the Bulls to refuse.
 
How much better than Devin Harris do you think Derrick Rose is?

My thoughts exactly.

So the only player left to think about is Beasley. He's nice, but worth giving up Devin and both our first round draft picks? I wouldn't do this deal if I were the Nets.

You do know this is the team that traded Tyson Chandler for PJ Brown and JR Smith, so they could get Ben Wallace, right?

Honestly I think he can be wayyy better. I just see Devin Harris as being a good hell even a very good piece but not that top notch player you can build a team around. In Rose I see that or at least the potential to be that. I would take a risk like this if I have a shot at an elite player at such a vital position.
 
this sitll doesn't solve our big man problem... we're just giving up assets for another PG. we need a big man!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! we had jkidd on our team and it didn't work out... what makes u think rose can make us any better without a big man

Listen Kidd is a lock for the HOF but at this point in his career he really wasn't able to put ridiculous pressure on the defense every play. Rose has the athleticism to put way more pressure on the defense at least from a scoring perspective than Kidd could dream of at this point in his career. I think Rose would give us a chance to thrive with e new Big Three though I would gladly trade RJ or VC to balance the roster and get a stud PF or C. With this trade we still have young pieces to offer a team if there is a elite big man available that we want to add.

Unfortunately the picks needed to package with VC or RJ to get The Big Man were traded away to get Rose.

So enjoy a threesome of Rose, VC and RJ...because that's it. No SG to back up Vince, and no replacement for Krstic/Diop should one leave this summer.

So play Carter 48 minutes. It's not like he has bad knees or anything!

Rose still has a lot to prove at this point entering the next level. Sure i see a all-star in him, but there are a lotta all stars that don't win championships. Our biggest need right now is not a replacement PG, but a big man. That in my perspective is the only way we'll be contenders. I'm more than happy right now with devin harris. I'd rather not trade all our assets and harris for a unproven player right now.
 
I hope you know, no team will take KVH, other then the Nets. He is just a waste of space, so stop including him. I know you do it because of salary, but no team will take him. Also, as stupid as PJax maybe, he won't trade the number 1 pick for Brand, who is coming of a major injury. Also, Swift has very little trade value as well. To add, Harris is the future PG. Adding Rose would be nice, but I don't know how well he'll work with Frank.

Lets take this slow. How many years does KVH have on his contract? What does that make him?

PJax != Paxson.
 
Well, I`m sorry I don't know the gist of his contract, but I don't know why he is included.
 
You know how teams want expiring contracts? There's a reason.
Cap space. 4 million dollars worth.
 
Yea, but this idea that he's worth something in a trade that brings in the number 1 pick is crazy.
 
You're totally right! What kind of team wants capspace to work with? Not the knicks! Look at how well that turned out!

What are you talking about? I believe NI said that as of July 1, KVH's contract has a $4.7M trade value and the Nets will pay his buyout. Teams will be lining up to get that contract to get under the luxury tax.

Swift's $6M expiring deal has very little trade value?

What NBA are you following?

Yeah, to add to that...this is the NBA, where a buttcrack player like Kwame Brown gets traded for a 20 and 10 all-star because he's an expiring contract.
 
I agree, Swift would be a good pickup for any team. Not only does his 6 mil come off your books at the end of the season, but this being his contract year he'll be motivated and when Swift is motivated to play he's not that bad...even helpful. As long as the team that gets him realizes that if he does put up good numbers it was all for a new fet free agency contract. Enjoy his one year of helpful productivity and cut him loss and reep the benefits of 6 mil in cap space
 
we have KVH expiring, swifts expiring... and throw in a S&T krstic... that is a pretty solid offer... and add jefferson to that we can get all star talent back
or a #2 pick
