I think Nets should go on a rebuilding journey again with Kyrie most likely traded and KD looking to opt out of contract as well. The could get future no. 1 picks and for now, just aim to get into playoffs. Could be a franchise defining move if they can find the next LeBron James.

Rebuild again?

Didn't you know that the moment they sign Kyrie Irving and Kevin Durant, that's the start of their rebuilding process sacrificing some of their future prospects? There's no need for any rebuild as they are already on it. It's just that their risks are not rewarded but it doesn't mean something good can't work out.

I think there are lots of plans already on their table that need to be finalized. Let's wait for their next move. I'm sure they are already on it and just waiting for some possible scenarios or might be, a change of plans on their usual.

Rudy Gobert to the Minnesota Timberwolves? That’s what I’m hearing. How does that make sense when they just gave KAT a quarter billion dollars? Will Gobert and KAT ever see the floor together? Something big seems to be brewing in Utah...

They may play together on the court. I think the Wolves are thinking KAT will be more focused on the offense now while Gobert protecting the paint and grabbing boards. The problem is he could be too slow as morvillz7z pointed out.

Last season's result may have pushed them to acquire an experienced big too.

Agreed KAT is more a power forward in a center body. Gobert is a true center. I mean how are you going to defend both of them lol. The only downsize to this is minn giving up a ton of draft capital to make this happen. If they are perennial finals contenders then it will be worth it since the picks will be late 1sts.

I'm not sure how is this going to work for the Wolves honestly, i really don't like it. KAT is a shooter and all that but in a league where most teams are downsizing, i just don't see the fit. Rudy gonna clog the paint for A. Edwards and Wolves gonna be exploited defending the PnRs having two bigs at the same time. Not only is not a good fit but they had to give away four first-round picks. Lol Imagine how many firsts are the Nets gonna get for Durant?

A dumb deal imo, but they probably reading way too much into how young a squad they currently have, I mean 20 years old Anthony Edwards is 20, Jaden McDaniels, 21, D’Angelo and KAT are both 26, they feel they could afford to let their next few years of draft go for Rudy, but I'm just keen to see how they tend to go about having both bigs on the floor work.

If Durant, LeBron, and Irving were on the same team, it would be the most dominant trio of the last decade. Although I doubt the Lakers will be able to pull off such a crazy deal.

It's possible that they can pull this off but I'm no longer that enthusiast with such super teams. We've seen that for the past season and it's actually optimistic but the result will really vary.

If this happen for me this is a big trio Irving, lebron and durant is a good option for the team if they made that for sure they can easily win or easily pass in the quarter finals. Because we all know that if lebron has a good teammates and have a food coaching plays for we can see the play of lebron again leading a high scoring every game.

Quote from: dwyane36 on June 30, 2022, 07:16:19 PM

It seems more realistic to me that Durant might be traded for Booker and other Suns players. In any case, we will definitely see some big deals this offseason, given that many interesting rumors are popping up right now.

Their are many rumors for now but let's wait what is the final line up or decisions for every team. And let's wait who's the strongest team in the next season of NBA

Excellent trade for Boston, getting Brogdon basically for free, a '23 first-rounder, and some scrubs. Celtics showed a glaring need for a ball-handler/playmaker in the Finals against Golden State. J. Holiday did wonders for Milwaukee in their championship year, this trade could be big for Boston.

Acquiring Brogdon is a great choice. He has a good average playing for 6 seasons at Milwaukee Bucks (3) and Indiana Pacers (3). He can hold the position of number 3 for the Celtics and can even be a backcourt duo with Jaylen Brown or if not, good backup role players coming from the Celtics' second squad.

Boston Celtics did great work getting a good role player this off-season. A good start in improving their squad.

Who's next? Not much trading rumor on this team is being circulated.

True, Celtics win in this trade, they basically loss nothing for this trade but gain a lon in Brogodon. Indiana should have at least ask for Grant Williams, but maybe C's are not willing to give up. There are also reports that they are getting Gallinari?

So Boston are almost complete now, we will see how they are going to execute next season as it seems they are very hungry and have the experience now.

I think Kevin Durant and Kyrie situation should not be read too much into it. I mean many people are saying that Durant is wrong to get that much money and provide with only a single playoff win. Players wanting out of a team is not a problem, teams do that all the time and trade their players, so why should it be a problem for players to want to do the same thing.

I believe that Durant will fetch a great amount of picks, and probably a few good players that can be turned into decent size picks later on as well. This means that Kyrie could be traded for another player to eat a cap space, just like hayward, westbrook, wall, etc etc and instead they would be able to just get other players next season with that much empty cap space, and get picks in return again.

How about Karl-Anthony Towns signing a 4 year deal for 56 million per year? That’s crazy money. I’m not sure KAT is worth that much considering he’s never really won anything and he seemed jealous of their new addition Anthony Edwards, who some think to be the team’s best player. I think this contract is going to really hurt them going forward, but they must have felt it was necessary. That’s crazy money though. About 20 million per year more than he is probably worth.

It's good though, I mean he become their franchise player, won a 3 point shootout last year and then have a good season. Time to reward him with this kind of money. Him and Edwards seems to blend more, D'Lo though might be their problem. I'm seeing that they are going to trade Russell and build around KAT and Edwards for the future. Hopefully, KAT can compensate them next season by bringing them into the playoffs again and get past the first round.

He is a versatile big man, I think he is one of the best big man in the NBA now, better than Jokic (IMO), so I think he really deserves that huge contract. It's a shame if they will not give him a max contract, he might be stolen by other team, and if Lebron gets him and dump Davis, that would make the Lakers a championship team.

This is why he deserve that huge contract he get and for sure if Nuggets didn't give this huge offer for sure there are other teams can offer the same contract he gets. Its not shame for him if Nuggets will not give them a max contract to Jokic but rather its a huge loss for them knowing how big the contribution he can bring also I believe Nuggets will not be a good contender if Jokic will be out of there picture and go to another team.

They certainly don't want Jokic out of their team that's why the Nuggets made a tough but good choice on offering him a max contract worth $264 Million if I'm not mistaken. For sure the other teams in the league will keep on offering contracts on their big man if they wouldn't do something to keep Jokic and I'm seeing the LeBron is already looking at him before the supermax deal went through.

There are rumors that the Lakers and Nets are working to finalize a deal. Supposedly it will be KD and Kyrie for AD and Westbrook plus a few picks and some $$$. This seems like an insane rumor but there are reports that they are close to a deal. KD and LeBron together would be something else. If that happens I’ll definitely be seeing a few Lakers games live next year. It would be the greatest pairing since Shaq and Kobe.

If Durant, LeBron, and Irving were on the same team, it would be the most dominant trio of the last decade. Although I doubt the Lakers will be able to pull off such a crazy deal.

It will be an amazing and hard-to-defeat roster if in-case Kyrie Irving and Kevin Durant will wear the same jersey as LeBron used to wear but yeah, that's just a hard thing to pull off. The nearest scenario that can happen is Durant on the Suns as today he requested a trade and preferred the Valley as a destination but I don't really think that the Suns will give up Booker that easily while Irving was on the table for Lakers trade.

Wow lots of crazy / fun stuff going on in the NBA with the free agency period opening up yesterday. The whole Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving thing is crazy but I guess it shouldn’t come as much of a surprise to anyone. I’m especially happy just seeing the news of Zach Lavine having been signed to a super max deal with my Chicago Bulls! Can’t imagine what would have happened had he not resigned with the Bulls!

Rebuilding? does not sound like the right word to use. With Durant, they won't be a different team because they have Simmons who is also a superstar, so this team is still going to be a playoff contender or a championship contender, and as long as Durant is healthy, this team will easily get into the playoffs.

Letting Irving go in exchange of more players, that will help them increase their depth and their rotation.

Provably it will be beneficial to them if they let kyrie go because they can have a new taste if they work well with their role players and provably Simmons will do more better performance in Brooklyn than in Phily because he has something huge to revenge for. They just need to convince Durant to stay and if they do then Brooklyn still a title contender next season.

Letting Kyrie go might happen. Nets should not let KD go and try to offer a better deal to lead this team.

Nets is still a good contender if all players will play and be healthy for the rest of the season. Those rumors of trades are
circulating and the decision still unsure whether the Nets will let things to happen and start a new roster and established
chemistries with new sets of players.

The KAT new contract looks insane. He's one lucky dude. The Timberwolves is on the losing side here. They can only hope KAT stays motivated to play while earning that much money. Maybe the high inflation also played a part in the negotiation but that's just a wild speculation from me. We should expect amounts like that before the trade deadline.

Hello NBA basketball fans, there is an interesting thing I want to ask here, of course it concerns tomorrow's game between the Miami vs. Los Angeles & Warriors vs Sacramento, plan I want to bet on them, but i didn't find good result
The reason for the Miami Heat vs. Los Angeles Lakers, I have little doubt that Miami will beat Los Angeles, since Tyler, Kyle, Victor are missing and a few others, James, Russell are staying on the Los Angeles team, what do you guys think about this, maybe Los Angeles will make history in 2021, Los Angeles won a score of 120-117 over the defeat of Miami.

For the NBA Warriors vs. Sacramento, I don't hesitate to make a bet, the Warriors have top players and can be relied on.

Only Miami vs. Los Angeles is a little indecisive for me.

I'm not sure about Kyrie Irving to be sent from Nets before next season. Because I believe that he is still an important part of the team now. He couldn't play in away games for some time maybe but as far as I know there is no problem about that anymore. I think that Nets should keep Irving too like they do for Durant. Ben Simmons and Seth Curry are good transfers already. Maybe they can go for a center transfer. Because Nic Claxton is not that good when it comes to rebounds especially. He didn't have a very good average last season imo.
