2022 NBA Offseason Thread: Preseason kicks off; Things are fine in Los Angeles, Draymond beats the charges

[sohi 23]

The Nets are not trading this pick for young prospects. They have to compete due to the Rockets having all their picks.

Best possible player offered would be BI or Zion.
Nola offers BI or Zion + Herb plus all their picks I think I’d take if I was Brooklyn.

I like the Ayton/Bridges package too but they’re more role players and at least BI still has star potential.

 

[N41D]

They don’t have 4 first rounders (including Jovic). They only have 2027 2029

Miami feels like they're in a little bit of a pickle on high-dollar guys.

Their contract situation - specifically with Herro - doesn't lend itself well to much maneuverability.

 

[DLF]

Miami is a LONG SHOT

LACK DRAFT CAPITAL

might as well take AD 2027 and 2029 and Max Christie lol

 

[jpzx]

Go All In for Your Last Titles, Lebron and KD.

Get rid of Band-Aid.

 

[Mark Antony]

 

[Coupé It]

If the Lakers were smart they’d offer Anthony Davis. They don’t have the balls for that though.

Na the Lakers absolutely have the balls to ask for that trade.

But why in the hell would Brooklyn want AD?

Makes no sense.

 

[Based Jesus]

At this point MVP gotta join WASHED KING in timeout for being so spectacularly wrong so often

 

[moonman818]

What did I miss

Makes no sense.

they own none of their picks. no incentive to tank

 

[jpzx]

I completely think Brooklyn would be in on AD, Simmons, and whatever picks the Lakers have. Then they’d get something great for wherever Kyrie goes.

 

[Coupé It]

KD has FOUR YEARS left on his contract.

The Nets have ALL the leverage.

They could sit and wait. What’s KD a going to do? Nothing.

[dman14]

Okc has the draft picks. Do they have the big contracts to send over?

 

[Lizakers]

Makes no sense.

throw is Russ to sweeten the deal

[MVP]

Nets fell apart after only TWO 40 win seasons?

But when EYE said it

So much for them being a title contender

But at least MVP was right about them bringing in stars like...Lamarcus Aldridge and Blake Griffin

Oh wait they got Ben Simmons too and it only cost them James Harden. Worked out well enough for them there I guess

THEIR floor was 40 wins and a 1st round exit and THEIR ceiling was 40 wins and a 2nd round exit. Glad to see the "distractions" didn't affect them in any way.

In the future Lakers fans should worry about their own franchise instead of giggling about how they think Knicks fans should feel about theirs. Have fun paying Russ 47 mil

*Checks notes*

We good over here. Knicks been a joke all of my life. At this very moment they're about to offer a king's ransom for Jalen Brunson. Y'all have ZERO room to talk.

Nets going to be bad whther they get a trade done now or late
Are they willing to pay him and let him sit at home. Kd will be 37 by the time he is a free agent

 

[ace]

Come on KD, fingers crossed at him coming to Atlanta.

Can’t envision KD rocking a Pelicans jersey.

 

[witnesskb24]

So happy Kd did this after Kyrie opted in

Just hope he doesn’t go to the chokin a*s sixers

 

[adobecs4]

KD pulling a Ben Simmons to get out of Brooklyn would be hilarious

Yea and the Nets can just wait for the best offer.

This doesn’t have to happen today or tomorrow because of Free Agency

 

[N41D]

Yall gone make MVP come back in here snappin' necks if you keep chirping.

 

[aepps20]

stop. we dont believe in the white mans black magic

The only MAGIC I believe in. I say this as a huge Lakers fan.
