According to netsdaily they're trying to trade kurucs

Just went over to read it

On Thursday, ESPN’s Bobby Marks reported that at least two NBA teams are doing deep dives into Rodions Kurucs’ legal situation, an indication that the 6’10” forward is on the block as the Nets seek to get down to 15 players by Sunday.

After starting 46 games and averaging 8.5 PPG last year, Kurucs has been an afterthought this season, shuttling back and forth from the G League. Over the summer, Kurucs was arrested following domestic violence allegations in a case that remains ongoing. Approaching the deadline, sources say that at least two NBA teams are spending resources to conduct a full background check on Kurucs to see if he is a worthwhile trade target.

Shumpert was actually really good on D. But I can see him and nwaba being redundant.

Pinson should've gone, but I think this is the reasoning right here. When healthy those 2 would be fighting over the same limited minutes, and I'd rather play Nwaba.

They are putting their faith in Musa and Pinson, they need to repay it. I'd say Kurucs but with the trade rumors it sounds like they're gonna cut bait

I would be too, but NetsDaily seems to have connects and he's been floating this for a couple weeks now.



Maybe they don't get the pick back they want and he stays, but it seems like he's def available for the right price.

Develop as you contend is right. But hes on a cheap deal. So its like I said before.. You trade young to go young again? I highly doubt he gets a high first out of trading him

Makes no sense to me either. Its just been an odd year for Rodi. Kenny ripped him in preseason, then the allegations, and losing all confidence in his shot.

I hope they stick with him

Really like Luwawu-Cabarot so far. Quick, long, athletic, finisher with solid ball handling and active defense. I see no reason why Theo Pinson continues to get minutes but whatever

If they're gonna use Chandler, then there's no point in having Kurucs. I doubt they get anything more than the 2nd they used to get him in the first place.


As for Prince, giving him the extension before he played a game showed faith and maybe it showed foresight, but man, he's gotta show and prove because he'll be the reason Joe Harris ain't back

Philly missing Joel, but that's how you take care of business at home

TLC has earned a chance over these past 2 games, and now Chandler back. Bench unit is slowly getting there. And if Rodi keeps working back in then its even better.

Prince is just too up and down right now, they have to keep working and get him to stop thinking he's KD looking for a contested 18 footer. But now Chandler can come in if Kenny needs to pull him and talk to him.
