Nets hope to cash in with Yi
Yi Jianlian | Nets
Some fans may want the Nets to trade Yi Jianlian, however that probably won't happen. CEO Brett Yormark told the New York Daily News that Yi helps to sell sponsorship deals with Chinese companies.

"Chinese companies have been so receptive to us," said Yormark. "Obviously Yi didn't perform as well as he would have liked to last year. Regardless of that, his star power is growing in China.

Well if they did here's a trade that would work with him coming to us. http://games.espn.go.com/nba/tradeMachine?tradeId=m2cjcf. We'd get the Wiz first rounder and the Nets would get a future first from us.
