    The Nets will be competitive in years to come, but we all know how the suffering of mediocrity can be. Nonetheless, what a huge step or block for us to rebuild is that Durant wants out! Geez, this ultimately separates them from any shot of a deep or any playoff run! Cheers boyz!

    Holy crap. It’s happening!

    We own all their picks for the next 5 years and they’re going to be terrible now. This is insane! Rockets are about to be absolutely stacked over the coming years.


    2023 Nets 1st round swap
    2024 Nets 1st rd pick
    2025 Nets 1st round swap
    2026 Nets 1st rd pick
    2027 Nets 1st round swap

    And every single one of those picks is UNPROTECTED.

    Championships incoming!!!

    KD’s lucky the Suns choked in the 2nd round so it’s not quite another GS situation…that is a 60+ win team and contender he’s trying to join tho

    We traded Harden at the exact right time. Who knew Harden's pouting a few seasons ago would be the long term saving grace of this franchise.

    I seriously can’t believe it. This couldn’t have played out better for us.

    would definitely have to include Brown

    and I would take Brown over Ayton easily…if the Sixers had picks, I would take Maxey over Ayton too

    Lillard is going to be pissed after he sees another team stack up and he's playing in Portland 3.0 with Grant

    A front court of Horford, Durant and Tatum would be nuts.
