2015 - The Nets agreed to swap first rounders as part of the 2012 Joe Johnson trade. So they have the 29th pick and the Hawks the 15th.

2016 - The Nets traded their first rounder, unprotected, to Boston as part of the Paul Pierce - Kevin Garnett deal. Those discussions started small with the Nets agreeing to take Pierce for Kris Humphries and the 2016 pick. Talks then expanded to include KG, Jason Terry and pieces, including the 2014 and 2018 picks. The Nets agreed to swap second rounders in the 2012 Reggie Evans trade. Clippers have option to swap picks if Clippers pick is between. So unless the Clippers finish with one of the top five records next season, the Nets and Clippers will swap picks.

2017 - The Nets agreed to swap first rounders with the Celtics as part of the Pierce - Garnett deal. No protections. Unless the Nets do well in the 2016 free agency --and the Boston rebuild is disappointing-- this pick will likely be swapped. The Nets had to give up their second round pick to the Hawks, the last payment in the Johnson deal. This was a late add to the deal, required by the NBA to satisfy some CBA requirement.

2018 - The Nets traded their first round pick, unprotected, to the Celtics as part of the Pierce - KG deal, the last payment of that deal. It's been suggested one first rounder was for Pierce, one was Garnett and one was payment for taking on Gerald Wallace's $30 million deal.

Dear god. Billy King is the WOAT executive in sports history. He is to executives what Dean pees or cam Cameron or Erik spoelstra and Scott brooks are to coaching. Makes David khan look competent, and that guy took Ricky Rubio AND Johnny Flynn over steph curry

You guys want an inside look for the fukkery we go through every night? Imagine listening to great quotes such as this from your head coach

Hollins added: "We just went to other people. That’s why you have a team, that’s why you go out and play with five guys. If we had to depend on Brook to get 20 shots, we were going to lose by 25." :ahh:

Yet no problem letting jack hoist up 20 shots a night

Their situation is bad with draft picks but if they make the right moves in free agency, they can put together a decent team next year. They'll have plenty of money in free agency. Free agent competition will be tough because a lot of other teams will have max cap space too. They won't get any stars but they should have more than enough to sign some decent role players around Lopez.

Since the draft isn't an option, they have to be very careful in free agency and not overspend on the wrong players. They can put together a decent team and fight for the 7th/8th seed the next few years until they get back their draft picks.

King will over pay one or two of the following after missing out on KD .... Eric Gordon, Jennings, Derozan, Barnes , Wade, Parsons, Rondo :scusthov:

They want Conley but hes not leaving Memphis

We'll probably end up with Jennings, and Gordon :francis:

Batum would be nice

Forot to mention this trade as well :russ:

On March 15, 2012, the Portland Trail Blazers acquired Mehmet Okur, Shawne Williams and a future conditional first-round draft pick (the 6th pick) from the New Jersey Nets (now Brooklyn Nets) in exchange for Gerald Wallace.[2]

Players Brooklyn could've taken with the pick

1. Portland used it to draft Damian Lillard
2. Andre Drummond
3. Harrison Barnes

They really mortgaged EVERYTHING to try and one up the Knicks as well as compete with the big 3 in Miami. So this trade actually led to them losing more draft picks trying to get rid of the player the gave up a draft pick to get in this trade. So Gerald fukking Wallace cost them 2 first round draft picks :deadrose:
