They were very quietly up for sale the last few years. I’ve heard they have since abandoned that plan.
No they were not. Where do you come up with this?

Ok so idea (might be a bad one):

Pels get: Mikal Bridges, Jarrett Allen, Georges Niang
Nets get: Jonas, Dean Wade, 1st round picks
Cavs get: Brandon Ingram



Hes got the right idea but it's a terrible trade for the Nets imo, and the cavs probably need more too.


I think the Cavs are a team to target in that there's still a lot of smoke about Mitchell wanting a big market, and Ingram for Mitchell in a 3 team deal is probably the best single piece they could get back.

I don't see why the Nets would trade Bridges though. Imagine if Herb could average 20+ per game with reasonable efficiency. Would you consider him a trade piece, or a core piece you're trying to add to?

I think a big part of why the Pels haven't done much trade wise since CJ is because nobody wants our loose change. If your goal is to get a bag of chips from the vending machine, the chips cost $1, and the machine only takes dollars and quarters, someone offering you 6 rolls of pennies for your Half Dollar doesn't really get you closer to the bag of chips even though it's a 3x overpay.

Pels get: RJ Barrett, Immanuel Quickly, Jarret Allen
Knicks get: Donovan Mitchell, Delon Wright, Gallinari
Cavs get: BI and JV and 2 Knicks 1st and a Pels 1st
Wizards get: Kira, Cleveland Minimum, Fournier, future knicks lottery protected 1st
Everyone stays under the tax.

I want mikal bridges. And I'd sell parts of Dyson Hawkins and maybe even trey with B.I to get him. Along with the Laker first


Like someone really smart said a long time ago...we should go after Mikal Bridges. Coulda been had for a lot less a while back. BI and a few throw-ins would be laughed at as a joke...nowadays.

They not. I said this last year when everyone kept making trade threads for him when he got traded. Why would the Nets just give him up? He was the main piece of the Durant trade.

They don't even need Ingram. They have their very own microwave scorer in Cam Thomas. Ingram makes zero sense for them.

Pels reportedly tried to get Bridges for 4 1sts when he was traded to the Nets and were rebuffed. Our assets have not gotten better since then.

Not sure I agree

This team is much better with CJ and Herb defending

Or like just 80% of the rotation healthy. Just a little more health goes a long way
