Wow. Brooklyn gets some cap room and a pick. I really like Thad Young as a player - he's a perfect small ball 4. That's a great move by Indiana.

They got Teague and Thad Young the past two days. Yeesh. They're gonna be right back in the thick of things.

I have no idea what Nets are doing. Why are they tanking when they don't control any of their 1st rounders…

EDIT: they'll lose out on FA too

I agree. Was there anything to Teague's self reported injury? Was it just to stay out of Philly?

Not a bad move for the Nets if they want to get rid of Young, who has 3 years left in his contract, and if Indy wants him they are getting a decent player who is "only" making about $13M/yr on average.

Win/Win, IMO.

EnySpree: Can we agree to agree not to mention Phil Jackson and triangle for the rest of our lives?

I think they're trying to clear up their cap and get some picks back. They have no young players at all. Clearing cap and getting a decent pick is pretty good. But pick 20 honestly seems low for Thad Young.

Yes they are. They've made themselves significantly better with Young and Teague.

I agree. I think they could have gotten more.

That's my point..#20 in this draft is gonna be a role player. Who are nets signing? I don't see any of the elite guys coming so over spending on a decent guy makes little sense when you already would of had Young on a cheap deal. Hawks got #12 for Hill. Young is better player.

kind of give some perspective on Lopez value also... they are similar IMO. Maybe Lopez gets us the mid first from Boston? I am ok passing on that considering the upside Rose brings.

My buddy who is a net fan just texted me and said the Nets will have 55 million in cap space after this trade.

Thats all they got. For a team that had so many options and assets a few years ago, they are in a really crappy situation.

But all the scrutiny is only in the Knicks.... Brooklyn needs to get some of that flame too

Good move for both teams. Indy is putting together a nice group. NJ just needs to collect picks where they can like Philly did. It will be a long process for them and this is how to begin.
