Looks like LaVert + to IND, OLadipo to HOU with J Allen and 4 first rounders.  Exum also to HOU and Kurucs I think to CLE

Nets have a big three

I expected another HOU name back to BK, havent heard yet

Wall
Oladipo
Gordon
Wood
Cousins
Allen

Actually Cousins to Nets might make some sense - can they deal him yet?

HOU back to back games vs LAL I think, plus the Kyrie mess, sealed the deal on both ends

Just wondering how this all could be.  After all, Chipstern assured us no way BK would/could pull this off.

heh

ALLEN to Cleveland - makes sense in case Drummond takes off somewhere (or of course now they could deal him)

So Rockets basically get Oladipo (dealt for Harden a second time) and a bevy of picks, plus Exum and Kurucs  for Harden.

Not sure this is enough

WOW: Done Deal
« Reply #16386 on: January 13, 2021, 04:52:22 PM »
The Rockets have sent James Harden to the Nets in a blockbuster four-team trade that also involves the Pacers and Cavaliers, completing the disgruntled star's exit from Houston and setting up a potential super team in Brooklyn, sources tell ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski and Ramona Shelburne.

The Nets sent Houston a package that includes multiple players and draft picks and features guard Caris LeVert, who was then traded to the Pacers for Victor Oladipo, sources tell ESPN.

Center Jarrett Allen and forward Taurean Prince are headed from the Nets to the Cavs in the deal, according to sources, while the Rockets receive Cleveland guard Dante Exum and Brooklyn forward Rodions Kurucs

Houston also receives Brooklyn's three unprotected first-round draft picks -- 2022, 2024 and 2026 -- in the deal, plus pick swaps in 2021, 2023, 2025 and 2027, according to sources. The Rockets also get Cleveland's 2022 first-round pick, via the Milwaukee Bucks.

The megadeal reunites Harden with former Oklahoma City teammate Kevin Durant in Brooklyn and positions the Nets, who also have All-Star guard Kyrie Irving, as a title contender in the Eastern Conference.

The trade was agreed to after the Rockets opted to keep Harden away from Wednesday's practice, following the former MVP's comments Tuesday that Houston isn't "good enough" to compete for a championship.

So....The All Martinet BackCourt
« Reply #16387 on: January 13, 2021, 05:05:06 PM »
Let's see....

Houston now has a Wall/Olidaipo back court, with Rodions Kurucs at SF.  Plus Dante Exum. Kind of slim pickings.   

However....a bushel of draft picks, for what they are worth. 

Nets basically gave up SG/SF LaVert, C Allen, SF Kurucs, unprotected #1 picks in 2022, 2024, 2026, and flip swap rights in the odd/off years, 2021, 2023, 2025, 2027. 

So a steal or a Hershel Walker trade? 

If everyone is healthy, a veteran win NOW rotation: C DeAndre Jordan, PF Durant, SF Harris, SG Harden, PG Irving will be playing BIG FUCKING MINUTES--make Thibs look like a piker. 

Bench depth?  Jeff Green, Landry Shamet, Tyler Johnson, Nicholas Claxton, Reggie Perry and Spencer Dinwiddie when he returns.

Looks like Durant, Jordan, and Harris scratching their heads, wondering what the fuck is wrong with Irving and Harden most nights.

Not sure how consequential the picks will be

My guess is 2 of the 3 are dealt again
