Eh. Durant clearly wanted out and had no interest being there
Sure they could have waited it out and saw who could be available in the summer but that's also risking KD's health
Getting essentially 5 unprotected firsts for him and a First Team All Defensive wing who shoots in the high 30's from 3.. that's pretty solid
I would imagine they could have gotten an All Star caliber guy + picks for KD like what was rumored over the summer (Jaylen, BI, Siakim, etc.).
And it would have made more sense to have a bidding war with the wide openess of this particular season but hey the Nets FO is dumb.
Trading Kyrie before KD just doesn't really make sense and not just because they didn't move him to the Lakers.
Who knows where Luka is in 2029
All I hear about is how Luka is going to leave if this Kyrie doesn’t work out or if they don’t get him another star. His contract is up in summer 2027. Luka could very well be out and that 2029 unprotected pick could be very valuable.
Just look at what happened in the span of a week in Brooklyn. Too much uncertainty across the league to speculate the value of all these unprotected FRPs 4-6 years from now IMO. Just get them when you can and wait to see what happens.
EDIT: VVG beat me to it
Jaylen brown realistic?I would imagine they could have gotten an All Star caliber guy + picks for KD like what was rumored over the summer (Jaylen, BI, Siakim, etc.).

dawg he wanted leave after YEAR 1?!?

If we’re assuming Irving is nuts and acknowledge it, besides that it was covidWho ever would've thought that this

Would end up bringing about the downfall of the Nets![]()
Cam Thomas is in year 2 and already has his own team.
His initial hope was to keep Bridges out of the trade, but that was a non-starter with the Nets. The Suns' offers weren't close to the Nets' asking price on Monday and Tuesday, and Marks kept working on possible trades to bolster the roster around Durant. The Nets pursued O.G. Anunoby in Toronto, and discussed possible deals for Collins and Cleveland's Caris LeVert, but Durant's mood was unsettled and Brooklyn knew it had to push on Phoenix to make the kind of offer it couldn't refuse.
