That deal would've been great for us without that Nets pick.

With it, we get fleeced.... I feel sick!

You just know it's going to be the #1 pick now.

Considering we just traded the #1 overall pick, no one should be surprised.

Nets pick should have top 3 protection or its robbery

I would have felt 10 times better if it was the Lakers pick.

Can't believe Boston would give up the BKN pick.  Terrible trade if true

Moranis I totally agree with you on this. This would be the worst trade I can remember completely dwarfing the Vin Baker Trade, Joe Johnson trade etc... would be absolutely brutal...
I don't think it is that bad as I don't think Brooklyn is a lock to be terrible like they were last year but it is still a bad trade without some sort of protection

All this crying over giving up a draft pick, you gotta give to get. You aren't going to win every deal in a landslide. We got the best player in the deal

If the reports are accurate, they just p---ed away a chance at a franchise big for an overrated selfish point guard.

I can't wait to hear Danny's logic about this.


When people are free to do as they please, they usually imitate each other.

The only way we win this deal is if the Nets pick isn't top 2.

The Brooklyn pick is projected to be bottom 5 in a draft with 5 very high end prospects thanks to multiple reclassifications. We also gave our biggest rival a huge asset for themselves or to trade for another star to help keep their own star (Lebron) happy. It screws us in the present and the future. That makes it worse than those other trades...
