Is it true? Let's see the link!

RJ will average 25+ for Milwaukee next year, and I think it means Redd is on the move too. But perhaps they will move Mo Williams, and hand the team to Sessions, while letting Redd and RJ bomb.

oohah

Good luck Mike D'Antoni, 'cause you ain't never seen nothing like this before!

I don't like this move for the Clippers at all. I don't think this years pick is worth AN EXTRA pick. Ckippers just fleeced themselves. Very short sighted. I can see why the Nets made their move though.


Unless the Paper Clips turn their new #4 and Brand into Marion and Miami's #2.

Clips walk away with Beasley and Marion

Heat walks away with Brand and either Mayo or Bayless.

They have an awesome squad now.....

Charlie
RJ
Bogut
Mo
Redd

Son....they are gonna be ballin.

Only sore spot to everyone except me is Charlie Villenueva. I would trade them Zach for Mo, and Charlie if that were possible.

Zach, RJ, and Redd is a respectable big 3.

Killer deal for New Jersey.

It's not about extracting talent it's about getting a young prospect and a contract that expires in time to go after you know who.

yup... it makes sense for both teams... NJ isn't going anywhere right now as currently contructed... they'll look to dump Vince soon enough & build back up w/a youthful core of Harris, Yi & a bigname FA, possibly as soon as next season depending if they can find a taker for Vince's albatross... but what the hell does cap space mean in this day & age? nothing apparently... but the Nets seem to think it means alot.

How dumb to watch a team across the river from you rebuild while you present Laffy Taffy to your own fan base.

If this trade does go down, Thorn just cleared $15M off the Nets cap in 2010.

Jay-Z is going to have a nice conversation with LeBron that summer.

It's not finalized Isles like the other rumors that get consummated it takes time. The Jermain O'neal/T.J. deal lasted almost a full week.

Add to that Young-Buck Sessions, and the Cowboy Desmond Mason, they have great athleticism and defensive potential. Bell is okay too. And what about whoever they draft at 8?

The Bucks stand to be entertaining as hell next year.

oohah

Good luck Mike D'Antoni, 'cause you ain't never seen nothing like this before!

The Milwaukee Bucks have agreed in principle to trade Yi Jianlian to the New Jersey Nets for Richard Jefferson, two league sources told SI.com.

The Bucks also are sending Bobby Simmons to the Nets. He has $20.5 million left on a contract that expires in the summer of 2010, when LeBron James, Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh could become free agents.

This trade could be seen as a sign that the Nets truly are interested in getting involved in the LeBron sweepstakes, based in no small part on his close friendship with Nets minority owner Jay-Z. As a result of this trade, the Nets are no longer committed to paying Jefferson $15 million in 2010-11.

Yi's camp was said to be ecstatic about going to the rebuilding Nets and playing in a major market, which was one of the original concerns when he was drafted by the Bucks last year. Yi threatened to not sign with Milwaukee in hopes of forcing a trade to another team.

The Bucks, meanwhile, are providing new coach Scott Skiles with a veteran player who can help him win now. The Bucks also retain their No. 8 pick in the draft to further revamp their team. The Nets hold the No. 10 pick in the draft.
