Lol.. sry 4 click bait but Nets are moving up in odds bc Bookies realize, that they actually may have a better team after making the trade.
D&D wins titles...
Defense & Depth...
Nets w KY & KD ate going nowhere. W Ben They had a chance but are missing the Def Anchor.
Claxton is OK but they miss big Jay. ReAL Bad...
Enter Phx Sun's & a possible return of:
Nets get 3x pick swaps in bt FRPs kn off yrs which don't show on here.
D Ayton Mi Bridges C Johnson J Crowder 4x 1sts 2x swaps in b.t. 3x 2nd rd picks
Then that's just for KD.
For KY they 3 team w SAS to move to LA.
LA gets KY
Nets get
Russ THT Nunn 27 1st 4x 2nds
Then Nets move Russ to SAS..
Get back McDermott , J Richardson, R Langford... Nets give up LAL 1st in 27 top 8 protected by them plus 4x 2nds. If don't convey spurs gets 1st Pick out of Lottery following yr.
Spurs have cap space, buyout Russ. Get a FRP & 4x 2nds for there trouble. Should be plenty to entice SAS to make move. Bunch of free assets.
Nets still get 1st if it's top 8 in 27. After that lotto protected 1st to LA next year.
So then Nets have all these picks & assets so they make 1st Call to Hawks who gave up all their pucks for D Murray.
Nets trade J Harris + Langford + 1x FRP + 1 swap in 24 from px plus 2x 2nds.
Nets go & get J Collins. Atl gets off bad $$ 4yr 23mil, Harris is 2yr 18mil, expiring after this yr. Plus 1frp + 1swap + 2x 2nds...
So why is Vegas Oddz moving?
Bc Nets are building to Win Now..
U lose KD u think blowup but in reality Nets can get better & younger.
D&D... plus fill there missing pieces...
How you ask?
This trade here shows what Nets will be getting back in a kd & KY trade... plus here is thing Bookies understand...
Nets have no interest in tanking bc Hou Rockets control all their picks thru 2026.. they got swaps too in bt.
So Nets have no interest in tanking at all.
Nets Projected Starters After trades
Ben Simmons at pg All NBA Def Makil Bridges at Sg All NBA Def Tj Warren put up 31ppg in bubble J Collins - legit fut all Star D Ayton - Def Anchor
That IS SCARY def. Plus depth..
Se Curry, P Mills, R Oneale, J Crowder, C Johnson. D McDermott, J Richardson, N Claxton, o0o yea & Cam Thomas who is 20..
Nets are going to be a better team without KY & KD...
Defensively Bkn would be as Elite as Boston is..
There new Big 3 All under 25!
Simmons Bridges Ayton
Cam Johnson. Crowder, J Collins in this mock by using picks.
Scary Good...
Nets would win with Def & Depth...
That's why odds are down to 20 to 1 from 100 to 1...
Prob be 8 to 1 if they pulled off a trade like this...
Looking at LA.. they are in trouble. They got no depth. LeGM ran team into ground. KY dies nothing 4 them. They will be awful w him or wout him. No Defense in LA.
Ben Simmons, Bridges, Ayton, Crowder, Warren, Oneale all are NBA type Defenders.
Claxton would be back up big.
This is why odds are droppING.
KD still bouncing & Nets will get way younger & closer to chip without both of em kd & ky.KY..
Who calls me crazy?
U want my team all under 25 & d & d.
Or 2 overpaid self absorbed stats who treat ppl awful disrespect coaches & think they run the franchise. U see kys exit interview. Lol. R u kidding me.
A joke.
Additional by subtraction...
KD 34 1 yr off Achilles. Lost a step on Def. Lost his explosiveness. Can still shoot but Def is worst.
KY just plays no Def. Volume scorer.
30+
Father Time undefeated..
Give me kids under 25 who play Defense..
What Say You?
