Knicks · Nets ready to blow it up... (page 1)

should you trade amare for joe?

Good luck on trading DWill- used to love him but haven't seen a player fall like that since Marbury. Joe Johnson has value but it will be tough matching salary. Lopez I'm not sure about at all- do other teams want him? Foots a risk, no defense and no rebounding.

Be careful of Isiah roaming MSG halls right now.

Milwaukee is the only team I can think of that would make sense for Lopez, maybe the Lakers. Every other team has a young center. I take that back the Pelicans would be an interesting fit for Lopez. A. Davis would be what Kevin Garnett supposed to be but better because thyey were not expecting a prime Garnett. A Davis is probably on his was pass a prime Big Ticket.

2015 first round draft pick to Atlanta
Atlanta has the right to swap its 2015 1st round pick for Brooklyn's 2015 1st round pick [Atlanta-Brooklyn, 7/11/2012]

2016 first round draft pick to Boston
Brooklyn's 2016 1st round pick to Boston [Boston-Brooklyn, 7/12/2013]

2016 second round draft pick to L.A. Clippers
L.A. Clippers have the right to swap their 2016 2nd round pick protected for selections 56-60 for Brooklyn's 2016 2nd round pick (if the L.A. Clippers’ pick falls within its protected range, then the L.A. Clippers’ swap right and Brooklyn’s obligation to the L.A. Clippers will be extinguished) [Brooklyn-L.A. Clippers, 7/11/2012]

2017 first round draft pick to Boston
Boston has the right to swap its 2017 1st round pick for Brooklyn's 2017 1st round pick; if Boston exercises this swap right, then Boston will convey its 2017 2nd round pick to Brooklyn protected for selections 31-45 (if this pick falls within its protected range and is therefore not conveyed, then Boston's obligation to Brooklyn will be extinguished) [Boston-Brooklyn, 7/12/2013]; this potential pick conveyance is the same as the one described in "2017 first round draft pick from Boston" on Brooklyn Credits

2018 first round draft pick to Boston

Nets are screwed. Hawks are going to be pretty nasty next year with the Nets top pick- they have a good foundation and are doing well this year.

Deron's salary owed: $20mil, $21mil, $22mil
Lopez: $15mil, $15mil (player option)
Joe Johnson: $23mil, $25mil

Why, when people have blasted Amar'e over the years for being no defense, lack of passing and poor rebounding, is there such interest in Lopez? I actually like Amar'e, but I don't get why people are so enamoured with Lopez (who's foot is a ticking time bomb). Why are rebounding, passing and defense suddenly no longer important?

For me, It's because he is not as bad as Amar'r on defense and he seems to be a more willing passer. The triangle should up a willing passing big ast by 2 imho. It really is not that hard to get asts in this offense working in the pinch post as a big. He is also still a pretty good rim protector.

I am not a fan of any of the 3 but the guy I would take a shot at is Lopez.

the cap space is important, but dwill is better than any pg we have had (on his worse day) since walt frazier.
