K.C.

Spurs really got Wemby, Castle and Harper

Bron was old but he still masked a lot of holes on this roster next to Luka. When hes gone, Pelinka’s shitty roster building will be on full display as he’ll actually be tasked with building good team around Luka and his flaws

@levert_szn @RawdonTravis33 They didn’t trade for him. They signed him because he was a free agent. Getting Clax would require giving up assets which is why the nets cant move him. Hes not worth trading for or he’d be traded

@Not___KC @RawdonTravis33 yeah they fucked up and traded for ayton, now they’ll correct the mistake. you also act like claxtons contract is some cancerous contract.

Literally every east team is going to be significantly improved next year except brooklyn lol chicago is probably still going to be bad but atleast they are gonna land Wilson + they are a team of lottery pick journeymen so there’s some talent to salvage and win some games with

@levert_szn @RawdonTravis33 Claxton to Lakers hope for like the 4th year in a row. Cool

@Not___KC @RawdonTravis33 the lakers trade for deandre ayton instead of claxton. how’s that working for them? they’ll be one of the first teams calling for claxton if they can offload ayton

@levert_szn @RawdonTravis33 No they arent. The only nets pieces with trade value are MPJ and Sharpe. Clax has been shopped for years, no one wants him. Mann probably has neutral value. Nets have very few players with trade value

@RawdonTravis33 @Not___KC yes. all 3 of those salaries are going to be desired because they are all good pieces for a team. the draft picks the nets have and even some of the draft picks from 2025 will be on the table as well. Teams in the league value the nets players despite the fanbases opinion

@ItBegins2012 @wwwaterboy11 He wanted to get a young piece back to sell to the fanbase. Morey completely fleeced him and sold him damaged goods

@Not___KC @wwwaterboy11 Of course. But even in hindsight taking Tobias Harris and adding him to kd and Kyrie would have been a lot better and still kept the nets as a contender. Taking Ben Simmons with zero knowledge of his mental or injuries killed this team.

@ItBegins2012 @wwwaterboy11 With Harden he should have gambled on him walking in free agency. Philly wouldnt have been able to sign him outright and if I remember correctly, orlando, detroit and okc were the only teams with cap space for him. Settling for seth curry was gross

@Not___KC @wwwaterboy11 The problem with all of Sean’s trades is that in trading a star away teams can usually get some young stud with possibly star potential back and Sean never got those in any of his big trades. It’s always the vets curry,Drummond, Finney smith, Bojan, cam Johnson and picks.

@wwwaterboy11 @ItBegins2012 KD haul was great to be fair. Kyrie and Harden were disasters but Kyrie had toxic value. Harden, he got fleeced

@ItBegins2012 @Not___KC pretty sad that the national media unanimously said that each of Sean’s picks last year was a reach. But Sean will be Sean. Only previous good picks were Allen and clax. But nothing special just role players. Gets fleeced in 50% of trades. Handled kyrie/harden/KD like a clown

@ItBegins2012 @wwwaterboy11 Yea I also said that since we fell to 6, he has even more job security because now theres no expectations. Landing top 4 means you got your face of the franchise and need to put together a winning product. 6th means another role player and more “future assets” propaganda

@Not___KC @wwwaterboy11 Then with the cap space Sean will take on another bad contract vet that nobody wants into the cap space for assets like he always does. And people will call him a genius for doing so. They will add a starter caliber decent player alongside 6 pick & MPJ and claim it was success.

@ItBegins2012 @wwwaterboy11 The fact that we are going to use 6 firsts in 2 years and maybe 2 of them, depending on who they draft this year, will be hits is honestly a fireable offense and im not even a heavy “fire marks” guy. Wasting that much 1st rd capital is insane

@wwwaterboy11 @Not___KC Well according to Sean marks fan boys he’s an amazing drafter, how? Idk his best draft selections have been career role players but that somehow makes you an amazing drafter.

He looks like that iced out meme lol

Ja Morant to Nets tweets from fans

@Mikeyjordan45 Is tiny. I will do more watching on all of them. Acuff has by far the highest ceiling offensively but it still goes back to my point about how well can he hold up defensively and will the offense he good enough to cancel it out but I will watch more

@Not___KC There's at least diversity with them though. Kingston impacts the possession game unlike those guys. Acuff plays off ball too and has insane turnover aversion (like Brunson). Wagler and Mikel are jumbos.

The annoying thing about landing 6 is not just missing out on the top 4 prospects but its being in the spot where the 5-7 best prospects are all scoring guards that will probably put up big numbers on their rookie deals then midway thru their extensions you are looking to trade

@Mikeyjordan45 I gotta do more watches on all of them. I watched some of Wagler today and his offensive game is very smooth. Think he has secondary creator value but his lack of athleticism and wingspan are red flags. Flemings is just way too small for my liking. 6’2 with a 6’3 wingspan

Steph and Brunson are the only examples of small guards built around on real contenders. Steph is a 1 of 1 outlier and even he still needed Klay, Dray, Iggy, KD, Livingston, Barnes to win. Knicks didnt take off with Brunson till OG and KAT were acquired

Cleveland, Sac and ATL maxed out their ceilings with Fox, Garland, Trae because building a real contender around small guards who cant defend is damn near impossible. Id probably rather take a wing at 6 who will probably be a much more well rounded player than a scoring guard

@will_nba_hater Havent watched much of Swain but i will now that you’ve mentioned. Negative with Yaxel is age but he just screams AG/OG clone. Probably less offensively skilled than AG but OG was a mediocre offensive player early in his career so hope for development under Jordi wingflation

@Not___KC Swain* Yaxel pretty good too though

I really am interested in drafting Yaxel
