Do you think the Nets will trade Michael Porter Jr. before the deadline? If so, what will the return be?
My p*nis will stop working before the Nets win a championship. The Nets organization prioritizes drafting projects who havenât proven themselves yet instead of keeping & signing already proven stars.
The Nets could trade MPJ for the #1 Pick & tank low enough to get the #2 Pick in the 2026 NBA Draft & they still wouldnât win anything.
I think more players are eligible to be traded on Thursday
Dumb question, but why not extend MPJ and not look to trade him? Heâs a great player and good locker room guy so why not try to lock him long term? His ability is known whereas draft assets (except for the generational guys that come out ie Flagg, LeBron etc) are uncertain.
They will trade him for a pick that will be another G-league player. As long as Sean Marks rules, this team won't go anywhere.
There's no way Sean Marks is taking on Bobby Portis and Kyle Kuzma, both 30 and both with several years left on their deals. GS makes more sense, but I would want 3 FRPs, or 2 and Podzeimski. If they get MPJ GS is going to compete for a title, and their pick will suck.
The only keeper I would consider dealing is Clax. We just promote Day to starter and have to find a backup Center in the offseason. Dump Cam if you can.
Why would we want to accumulate picks in the hopes that we can then trade them for a star, when WE HAVE A STAR IN MPJ!?
I think heâs going to be traded for 2 firsts and expiring contracts.
What? If we trade MPJ we want to remain competitive? So we should get Zach Lavine? Thank god you guys aren't running the Nets. If you trade MPJ the idea is to TANK! You don't want to "remain competitive", you want the best odds at a top 3 draft pick. And why would I want Lavine who hasn't worked out in several stops? MPJ is working out great right now and he's only 27. Lavine is 30!
The way I clicked so fast off this video.
LOL @ Brett Siegel being an Insider. You should have Evan Sidery on next, LOL!
A frontline of MPJ, Jimmy & Draymond is very small,
I couldn't imagine playing a 82 game season knowing the fans don't want you to win! I would be vomiting blood after 10 games of tanking as a competitor
The nets wasted 4 first round pick last year, they should have traded 2 to later years or 2 first round for a higher pick or to a losing team for their 1st round future pick. How are their 4 first rounders doing. Basketball itâs all about the top 3 to make a difference or top 10 to be a good rotation player
Keep Sharpe! DO NOT LET GO!
The best scenario that i heard was keeping MPJ till the summer to see how are lottery pick is because if the Nets end up with a pick outside the top 4 then we may need to keep MPJ to try and win games also i donât think he wouldnât fit with Cameron boozer or AJ Dybantsa or Caleb Wilson but i do think MPJ would be a good fit with Darryn Peterson so it really does depend on the draft pick the Nets get
Bucks have nothing to offer
clippers are ne of them i knoe
The Nets have plenty of pics. They're going to keep Michael Porter and maybe trade someone else.
Marks should be fired if this happens. đĄ
I donât get why people want to keep mpj, heâs at his highest trade value ever and doesnât fit our timeline. And to those who think weâll win now MPJ was the 3rd or 4th option on a championship team so what you guys want us to be up there with the bulls heat and hawks, a play in team who never makes it past the 1st round
