we just got worse. and DLO was trending upwards, no need to make this move now. rookie gm move
D'Angelo Russell traded to the Nets for Brook Lopez & 27th pick
- Thread starter bl2k8
- Start date
Why
Brook is one of the woat rim protectors and one of the woat rebounding bigs.
He'll Masai again does nothing I'd have traded Jonas and our first for Russell

So you're telling me...the Nets were involved in a trade where a team made a panic move...and came out on top

Seeing Lakers and Nets fans complaining about the trade on Twitter. Can't remember the last trade I've seen where both fanbases talked down on it.
I personally like the trade. It's been years since the Nets had someone drafted in the top 5 on their team.

If you check the 2018 FAs, it's pretty much LeBron and Boogie, who yall gunning for
Id imagine we will test to see if Lebron is coming here then pursue Boogie hard. Lebron is a long shot.
YOU WILL BE HAPPY ONCE WE START WINNING AGAIN
I LIKED DLO'S GAME TOO, BUT HE HAD A WEAK PERSONALITY
They aren't tho
people said the same thing about Cavs and Kevin Love. Why trade George to the Lakers when you can feast off the Celtics 8 unprotected prime picks (including a lakers unprotected pick)?
No doubt that Brooklyn only took the Mozgov contract to get Russel...but I also don't have any doubts they would have done the same thing in October or November or whenever...because they don't have a draft pick that anybody wants...and lopez was the only player they had that anybody wants...and nobody was going to trade for lopez cause he only had 1 year left on his deal and he isn't good enough to be in that "take a one year rental chance on him" group...
I'm pretty sure the lakers didn't "get what they wanted"
Once upon a time the knicks "didn't procrastinate" with melo and how that turn out for them
You didn't have to be so mean about it
You realise they're thinking the year after next, not next year and that's what made sense to them with the trade. They dumped that money and potentially have enough to sign both PG(if they get him) and another person who will remain nameless. However, that's all reliant on if they can dump off some of the other players they lost faith in.
There is alot of moving parts but if it works out, they'll be up big in 2 years

Cause I can't almost guarantee his value would've been higher. If Lonzo is the player everyone thinks he'll be, and if D'lo is actually a SG like everyone thinks he is, coupled with an injury free season plus another year in Luke's system, plus the natural growth of young players, D'lo would've 100% had a better season than this last year barfing injury. We would be been able to make a better trade than this even in a salary dump. We just traded the 2nd overall pick from 2 years for a rental big they've been shopping around for years with no takers, the 27th pick, and a salary dump. We bought high and sold ridiculously low in just 2 years. Embarrassing trade

Laughing at you n*ggaz like “ha ha ha”
I didn't say he was trash, I think he's decent at best. I'm amused that you see acquiring Mozgov & Russell as a "come up" for a franchise in BK that continues to punt away all their draft picks

Why would Boston do that knowing he won't resign
