what are the nets going to do with their cap space

Any Free Agents worth a sh*t this year?
Who is disgruntled?

They should be a part of every big trade

Rocket River

 

Durant
Beard

Hit up PF Chang you're done

 

Not a damn thing plus no one wants to go there

 

My guess is that the Nets will provide cap space in return for picks, build their team up for a couple of years through the draft and then go after big moves.

 

We need the Nets to take the long road. No shortcuts, no big signings, no splashy trades. Just slow, steady, methodical team-building. Because if they do that then by 2027, that swap with the Rockets? It could be gold.

 

Zion?

I have a feeling the Nets might set themselves up as 'swappers' on draft night, use some of their cap space then.

4 players under contract (Claxton/ Johnson/ Clowney/ Whitehead)
Team options/ NG contracts, assuming let go of Timme and Maxwell Lewis and keep Keon Johnson, Jalen Wilson and Tyrese Martin.
That's 7 players.
Lock in on the cap-holds of Cam Thomas and Day'Ron Sharpe so they can match.
Add the 4 first round guaranteed rookie contracts
They are now at 13 players with $55M in cap space.

They could use that space on draft day to be absorbing contracts in exchange for a pick (eg. Take on Porzingis from the Celtics or Grayson Allen from the Suns in return for pick #27 - they could then be granted a 2026 or onwards first rounder in exchange for helping the team duck the 2nd apron).
