Royce to Brooklyn for a first rounder

[SteakNEggs]

Brunson is this guys biggest fan. Royce got him paid with below below average defense.

Good Job Ainge. Now imagine what we can get for conley

 

[Miggs]

Great trade. Love it. Especially since it’s sort of a big **** you to Donnie.

 

[Miggs]

If Brunson ends up signing with someone else (say Miami), could be pawn Conley off on the Knicks who have a gazillion 1sts now? Maybe get one of them.

Ingles took tens of millions away from Redick after eliminating him from a playoff series, Royce gave tens of millions to Brunson. And they say Joe is the nice guy.

I wonder who the Jazz would have drafted at #23 this year if the Nets didn't defer this pick until next year.

I'm aware... I think he keeps the savings on this deal. I think we stay out of the tax and I have no real problem with it. There is no reason to jump into the tax right now unless something amazing comes along.

The Favs deal did hurt us because the pick could have been used to improve on our weaknesses. I no longer believe we are a second tier contender so by all means take the savings. The tax distribution will be huge this year... so getting out of the tax replaces some of the coffers.

You may be correct on what he does going forward. I am just saying that a number of decisions have been made since Ryan took over that were not about saving money and were not about staying out of the tax - which would have been easy to do. IMO, it is the one benefit we have had from Ryan take over from the Millers, who I really miss and appreciate more very day.

I'm happy. Snyder relied on Royce too much.

Even with Snyder gone I'm happy we got a 1st for Royce.

 

[Miggs]

Do we have two 1sts in 2023?

 

[Jingled]

Do we have two 1sts in 2023?

Yes, we have our own and the one we just traded for.

 

[Miggs]

Yes, we have our own and the one we just traded for.

Now trade Conley for a 1st and we’re talkin’.

 

[Hearsky]

Royce the KD replacement.

Royce already getting nervous thinking about having to take more shots.
