Tsai and Marks are fukking garbage. Trade away KD and Kyrie, get no All Stars in return, and we still have Joe/Seth/Patty/Ben/Royce on the roster.

What the fukk do we need 10 wings for?

We've decided not to tank, but we've also not decided to compete. Our ceiling is now a scrappy 1st round exit, what the fukk is point of that?

:mjcry:Back to the good ole days :mjcry:

What realistic All Star did you expect in return for KD? At this moment the Nets have legitimate assests to get a top 15 player if they demand out

We have none of picks and no incentive to fully tank.

Right, so why not spend some of those picks to go get more help to compete? Or use some of those picks to get off the Simmons & Harris deals to open up more flexibility going forward?

This year is a swap year with Houston, so we could have bottomed out and taken the worst lottery pick since they're already a guaranteed lottery team. Gotten all the assets we could get for the Vets and then began whatever this rebuild will be come the summer.

The most pointless place to be in the NBA is a play-in team. Not competing for a title, and not in the lottery with a chance for a top pick. And it looks like we'll be stuck there for some time.

for all their talent that’s what we were last season with KD and kyrie :francis:

…and after seeing the type of trades marks made I don’t think he would’ve done much to improve this team even IF kyrie and KD had stayed…we would’ve just had more false hopes going into the playoffs to end up getting smacked up by the celtics or bucks at some point…I just wish there was some direction with these trades for KD and kyrie…it’s like we just took a bunch of shyt…how are they content just throwing this product on the court??

fukk it…it’ll be fun to watch clax and cam…maybe he will start now

Brooklyn made the right decision to seperate themselves from their drama diva superstars. In the end, the NETS have assests they gained from trading Kyrie and Durant. They can build a winning roster with the draft picks and plug some key pieces in the summer. The NETS future is very bright.
