Nets aren't giving up KD for scraps
They definitely aren't no doubt.
However, I edited my post saying they're also in a rough spot because KD and Kyrie just got swept and next year teams are stacked much more.
I'm going to be real, if everyone else is healthy they don't got much of a shot next year. Their competition is too stacked: Warriors youth got more experience, Clips are healthy and pulled in Powell/Covington in a trade, Nuggets are healthy, Wolves added Gobert, Pelicans get Zion back, Bucks get Middleton back, etc.
I think both fans and teams know KD/Kyrie ain't getting it done in this climate. shyt, I think those two know they ain't getting it done vs the league's best.
Worst yet for the Nets, teams know this as well and they know KD/Kyrie won't have an issue sitting out games if they're unhappy.
It's basically Harden in Houston all over again. The longer the Nets hold, the more I think the value drops for them. Best bet is probably a three+ team trade but I think the better trade would be an overhaul on draft picks.
Let a contender give you all their future picks/swaps for the next 5 years. Basically what Houston did to them.
