Nets Assets Grow with Trade
by Net Income on Dec 14, 2010 11:12 PM EST
Email
PrintThe Nets dipped into their trade assets to acquire Deron Wiliams and move Troy Murphy, but they still have seven draft picks over the next three years, with at least one first rounder in each of the next three. They also have an estimated $19 million in expiring contracts this season...although they've made it clear they'd like to bring back Kris Humphries and Sasha Vujacic. They also continue to have an open roster spot.
Here are the details.
Cap Space:
The Nets are about $200,000 over the cap after trading for Deron Williams. The team now has 14 players on the roster, one less than the maximum. The Nets gave out a reported $635,000 in partial guarantees, $450,000 for Stephen Graham, $35,000 for Ben Uzoh, $100,000 for Sean May and $50,000 for Brian Zoubek, the last two long departed. The Nets also paid out nearly $10,000 to Orien Greene, who played for the Nets on a 10-day contract. Graham and Uzoh's guarantees become part of their veterans' minimum salary. The guarantees paid May and Zoubek and Greene's 10-day count against the cap.
Expiring contracts:
The Nets have seven players on expiring contracts totaling $19 million. The expiring contracts, in descending order of size, are: Dan Gadzuric, $6.883 million; Sasha Vujacic, $5.475 million; Kris Humphries, $3.2 million; Quinton Ross, $1.14 million; Graham, $992,680; and Uzoh, $473,604. Graham also has a $100,000 partial guarantee on a second year. Brandan Wright, on the last year of his rookie contract, is a restricted free agent making $3.398 million. Should the Nets decide not to keep him, his contract too becomes expiring.
The remainder of the team is either on rookie contracts--Brook Lopez ($2.41 million) and Damion James ($1.16 million); or multiple year deals--Travis Outlaw ($7 million); Anthony Morrow ($4 million); Jordan Farmar ($3.75 million); and Johan Petro ($3.25 million).
Draft picks:
The Nets have seven picks over the next three years, five of their own and two acquired in trades, including the two in the Williams/Vujacic deal. Only two of the picks have protection, the Rockets' 2012 lottery-protected pick; and the Lakers' 2011 first rounder protection which is protected 1-18.
Here are the details:
In 2011, the Nets have the Lakers' first round pick (protected 1-18), acquired in the Terrence Williams trade; plus their own second round pick.
In 2012, the Nets have their own first round pick; the Rockets' first round pick (lottery-protected), acquired in the Terrence Williams trade; plus the Heat's second round pick (unprotected), acquired along with Chris Quinn.
In 2013 (and beyond), the Nets have their own first round pick and their own second round pick.
Regarding protections:
--The Lakers' 2011 first rounder. The pick is protected 1-18 through 2016. Currently, the Lakers would pick at #26 so barring a monumental collapse, the Nets are likely to use it this June. In the unlikely event the Lakers pick between #1 and #18, the pick rolls over each year through 2016. In 2017, it would be unprotected.
--The Rockets' 2012 first rounder. The pick is lottery protected (1-14) through 2016. If the Rockets pick falls in the lottery in 2012, the pick rolls over each year, again through 2016. In 2017, it would become a second round pick.
The Nets have not traded one of their own first round picks since 1999, preferring to keep their picks and trade those acquired from other teams. (The last two first round picks the Nets traded turned into Matt Harpring and Wally Szczerbiak.)
Until the Deron Williams' trade, the Nets had not traded one of their own first round picks since 1999, preferring to keep their picks and trade those acquired from other teams. (The last two first round picks the Nets traded turned into Matt Harpring and Wally Szczerbiak.)
Trade exception:
Trade exceptions only come into play when a team goes over the cap.
--an estimated $1.826 million exception acquired in the Deron Williams trade. It expires at the deadline in 2012. There are restrictions on its use...it can't be traded with a player for example...but they can be valuable. If the Nets wanted to trade a draft pick to, or swap picks with, a team in return for a player, they can use a trade exception to do so. Trade exceptions can also be used to grab a player off the waiver wire.
Mid-level and Low-level exceptions:
With the Nets go over the cap, they would normally be able to use their mid-level (MLE) and low-level (LLE) exceptions, worth $5.85 million and $2.0 million, to sign and trade players in a more complicated deal. However, the team renounced both last summer to get room for free agent signings.

@ soul driver
Normally I would think that was crazy talk but this does hint at something larger than just acquiring Melo. That is a LOT of assets to use for just one trade.
If done right, this could be very exciting

"I don’t think we want to be like the Knicks. I think we’d more like to resemble the Lakers." - Mikhail Prokhorov
I still think we should be thinking more in terms of what Denver wants to unload since they will be rebuilding.
That would inevitably involve a 3rd term.
We should think in those more modest terms.
If CP3 were involved, then NO might be the 3rd team to get something Nuggets don’t want.
I think King would want to unload Outlaw’s contract. He wouldn’t be of much use playing behind Melo.

Nets can’t get exceptions by going over the cap at this point. Also, the Nets don’t have a trade exception from the Yi deal, since we were under the cap.
I really hope something gets done soon

A few things...
1. No one is gonna take back Outlaws deal unless they are getting something sweet, too sweet (i.e. Favors & multiple 1st rounders)
2. You can receive a trade exception while being under the cap, you just can’t use it unless you are over.
3. To have any chance of getting Anthony to sign an extension, we must first get a CP3/D.Rose/D.Williams type of player first, which I would assume, would take all of these aforementioned assets, thus leaving the cupboard bare for a ’Melo deal.
4. If we trade for Carmelo Anothony as a “rental” with the hope that Proko/Billy/Avery are gonna convince him to blah blah blah, then we are setting ourselves up for a disaster of Biblical proportions, i mean Old Testament stuff, fire&brimstone
Were they saying "Boo" or "Boo-urns?"
I think that no one is safe except for:
Brook – The FO has said so an good Centers are hard to find.
Petro – Who would trade for him?
Morrow – One of the only consistent players for the Nets and they seem to like him.
Outlaw – No one will take that contract.
James – He has a broken foot.
Anyone else?

It's sad, but true.
"I don’t think we want to be like the Knicks. I think we’d more like to resemble the Lakers." - Mikhail Prokhorov
We arguably have no real good players, but Brook is untouchable because centers are hard to come by…. as a Nets fan, every position is hard to come by, no sense is holding on to one and not another.
"No, we have to start getting wins. At the end of the day there isn't any asterisk that said they played hard in this game, it was close here. It's an L or a W. We put ourselves in a position to win and it's time to win those games." - Kris Humphries
I'm just saying I don't think he'll be moved. I'd put money on it.
The FO has said just as much and I would prefer to keep Favors, but it’s not about what I’d do.

Were they saying "Boo" or "Boo-urns?"
CDR is playing well in Milwaukee
With Skiles playing over Maggette and finishing games. You can’t blame everything on the players and not on the organization as well. Last year was really bad for all the young players Lopez included, good thing Favors wasn’t here.
He quit on team management and basically the team
and for some reason he’s beloved by the fanbase and is now a martyr. We Nets fans are a peculiar bunch : )

lmao
first, as much as I like CDR’s game, Williams is way more talented.
2nd, CDR is playing really well with the Bucks and contributing on a team that is way better than ours (they also have a better coach). Not bad for a guy who is gonna never wake up, lmao.
But seriously, Carmelo is a pipe dream
we have Harris & Brook who are legit starters. Favors who could be. Morrow, Outlaw & Petro are solid 7-9 guys. we need to deal these picks, expiring contract of Vujacic, Murphy and The Hump (before he fails a steroid test) for spots 2,3&6. Any ideas?
Were they saying "Boo" or "Boo-urns?"
also all this doesn't take into account
that we officially traded one of only two, maybe 2.5, fine guys on the team.

It balances out with the addition of Sharapova.
Honestly though, the Nets should start Kim Kardashian at SF. She can’t be worse than Ross and at least we’d have one player who’s good at ball handling.

Thanks NI!
Another comprehensive posting by NI! The best draft picks are still likely to be the ones we earn for not winning any games. Last nights 76ers game was supposed to be a W, in my schedule to get to 30 wins. We are now four games behind my projections to get to 30. Not good. KUDOS to Maxyboy for the ball-handling joke! Former players from last year’s team don’t get much play, and I wonder if TWILL is going to get minutes on Houston. CLEE has not gotten the minutes, CDR is in street clothes. Simmons is sunning himself at his pool. HAYES is sitting by the phone, much like my current dating situation. Boone is eating Chinese food, Dooling is getting 7 minutes a game. Sean May is doing Jenny Craig, again and Sean Williams is practicing for the Olympic computer chucking event. Yi is now injured, and wasn’t getting top player minutes either. All in all a sad group of guys. So what will happen to TWILL? I wonder what the Czar of the telestrater thinks?

Still, the Nets didn’t get two more first-round picks today because they think they’re out of ’Melo chase.
The issue isn’t what the Nets are offering. They have always had the best offer.
The problem is convincing Melo to play in NJ. Today’s trade does not help that.

what tommason said
A Nuggets official said rumor is false. I just talked to Melo and he said, "It’s terrible. There’s no truth to it.’’
Let's be patient
We’ll know when we know.
And in the meantime, this team isn’t championship-caliber, so might as well lose often and get in the draft lottery again.
I’d still rather get Chris Paul than Carmelo Anthony, but will take either…or both.

Because the Internet reports spread like wildfire, we’re going to hear all sorts of cray cray reports.
I’ll believe it when Woj reports it. Nitey nite! Get sleep, there are more important things in life than this stress-causing addiction called the Nets.

lets agree to never say cray cray again
I feel bad for my little brother. He walked in and saw that the score of the Nugs-Magic game was 88-89 and thought it was high scoring.
All he knows is the Nets.

Nets finally had a couple young players that were gonna be good
And but of course, we trade them. Williams was fun to watch and gave some hope of a brighter future. Favors is gonna be a starter in this league for 15 years and may lead the NBA in rebounding. Again, better to build than go for the quick fix. Be careful what you wish for Carmelo fans
Still can't believe that we started 2-0
There are deeper problems in this team than just not having Melo. I truly believe that the melodrama has worn down heavily on the team.
Wow
So now we’ve been led to believe we had obtained Carmelo twice. I just want Carmelo to be traded ASAP, whether or not it’s to the Nets. This whole thing is a joke and has risen to the level of the LeBron circus we endured this summer. Please just let it end so we can get on with our lives and the rest of the season without having to deal with this monstrous distraction.
Ok one point
Nets are building a team of winners (ok don’t attack me yet). Their bench backcourt has 1) lots of experience working together, b) 2 rings each.
We have picks up the wazoo. Even if the Melo thing doesn’t work out, the Nets have flexibility to do multiple deals.
I just am slightly concerned because we never had a front line. Now we do and we trade it? Humphries went 1-10 today (not cute). He’d be our lone PF if Murphy and Favors were dealt for Melo. BUT with that said, Melo, Brook, Devin would be real nice. Devin is better as a #2 like when we had Vince around.

In my opinion
melo would rather finish out the season with the nuggets than come to a Nets team headed to the lottery.
So then...
What happens at 1:00 am when Channel 7 in Denver is supposed to have the full story on the Carmelo Trade??? Either their twitter account was actually hacked, or we will be finding out shortly.

deal isn’t done, but he can’t gaurentee that is the case tomorrow.

We are at the same point we were at months ago
Nuggets want our pieces
Nets want Melo
Melo isn’t interested in coming to the Nets

he wasn't interested then
our stellar play combined with the knicks tank job has swayed him.
