TP for the idea. I don't see Nuggets or KD going for that alone. But that is a great partner if it's KD and Irving.

KD and Irving
for
Gordon, Porter, Murray, and some picks.

Can Nuggets or Nets says no to
Nuggets starters
Jokic, KD, Brown, Pope, Irving

Nets starters
Claxton, Gordon, Porter, Simmons, Murray

That's a good fit. The picks just need to be worked out.

Edit:This idea of mine is dead. Simmons and Murray can't be on same team. Simmons is killing Nets trade possibilities lol

Warriors could land Durant if they want. They can offer Wiggins, Pool, Kuminga... What scares me if Brooklyn will give Kyrie and Curry to Lakers for Westbrook. That would be so stupid, as stupid as trading for Harden, when they lost LaVert, Dinwiddie and Allen.

[Moranis]

If all it takes to land Simmons is a massive negative contract and a future protected 1st, then Boston should be acquiring Simmons.

The latest rumors have KD and Irving staying with the Nets.

I see Bryant, for some strange reason, has signed with the Lakers.
Can't resist that big market glitz.

This leaves the Celtics with a hole behind Horford and Robert Williams.
Considering how fragile they both are, that's a big hole.

So what now for Stevens? He needs more depth up front.

The last two trades seem like the best realistic return for the Nets:
