I'll set it at 1.5.

Do you think we actually make some deals? If so do you think it is multiple players that will be moved?

Gotta think JJ is a given. I guess it depends on whether we group another player in a deal with him (i.e. Melli).

If this org had some balls they'd trade jj and Bledsoe so Kira can get some legit playing time. Tank it up and go after a name in FA with the warchest in the offseason.

I think JJ will be gone. Hope Bledsoe too.

Why is everyone so high on Lewis? He showed some flashes early but seems just as inconsistent as NAW the more he plays.

JJ doesn't seem like he's unhappy here based on his recent podcasts but yeah he makes the most sense.

Bledsoe should be dealt but not sure if he has enough value league wide.

Hayes is another one only because I think he's not going to be a guy past his rookie contract so get something for him while you can.

Melli and/or Hernangomez will be throw ins for trades.


Ball, Ingram, Zion, Kira, NAW, Hart, and Adams aren't going anywhere

I think if we can move JJ we will, which is why I set it at 1.5.

I do think a lot of teams won't offer much for JJ because they will just hope he gets bought out.

I do not think anyone will offer jackshit for Bledsoe. He will have to be moved before next year's deadline.

Guys like Gabriel, Melli, etc could be throw ins.

Bledsoe may not have any value in a trade. How do we use the warchest to go after a name in FA? What cap space allows us to go after a name in FA? I am all for going for a high draft pick while allowing the young players to get experience.

hes incredibly fast.
I think the idea is to let him figure it out by playing.
there were a couple of very fast little guys as 2nd round guards on a Michigan national finalist who bounced around Europe a couple years and then were quite good in nba.

after spending a mid first on him let him learn whatever now since
this team isnt getting to the wcf anyway.

.500 looks like an accomplishment having to play in the west.

Under. They don't move anyone. Release Redick late in the season. He goes to one of the LA teams..

I don't believe that for a minute. He'll go wherever he can try to get a ring. Brooklyn doesn't want or need him..

I hope they deal JJ to the nets and get a pick swap. nets first for 2 pels 2nds.

bledsoe will be like a sore spot.
like Hill. a test of spiritual practice. but hill seemed to play better after he was moved. so maybe you use contacts and deal Bledsoe where some assistant likes him and can restart his motor.

I go over. move and shake and come out of it with a first.

Under.

I hope for over (JJ and Bled), but I’m prepared to be disappointed.

i will say under, but i don't count throwing in Melli or Gabriel as a traded player.

What Nets 1st? they literally don't have one they can trade until the offseason, and it would be 2028.

You don't think there's at least a possibility Brooklyn might want to upgrade on Landry Shamet or Tyler Johnson? It's not like they're bringing Jordan Clarkson's 19 PPG off the bench.
