Trade #120 - Brooklyn Nets / Toronto Raptors

[Corey]

Brooklyn Nets in:
Brandon Jennings - $3,179,493
Jerryd Bayless - $2,500,000

Toronto Raptors in:
Brook Lopez - $10,000,000
Gerald Green - $1,500,000

[PocketKings]

Fair trade IMO, but the Nets are now left with a gaping hole at C.

Conley - JJ - Prince - Hickson - Brook is a nice team.

Toronto continues to do amazing.

Yea, we need a C. Looking at trades to get one ATM. But at this point if we can't get one, we might as well run and gun with a lineup of Amare-AK47 and Wallace. Lopez wasn't going to stop other centers anyways. Might as well hope for Amar'e at center playing with 2 solid defensive and rebounding forwards.

Toronto has been the best GM'd team in this mock IMO.

Turning that roster into Conley / Johnson / Prince / Hickson / Brook is ****ing awesome

Don't forget Thaddeus Young off the bench

But yeah, talent wise I felt it was fairly even. But it just greatly helped my need of acquiring a legitimate big.

Does it make it the playoffs?

[PocketKings]

Yes, the Raptors to me are a playoff lock IMO.

IMO also they are a top 5-6 team in the East at this moment.

RR & SD have been nothing short of absolutely amazing.

Does it make it the playoffs?

Most definitely, I'd say.

Maybe even a top 5 seed if you can upgrade PF enough.

[Raps08-09 Champ]

Raptors should face the Pacers. Raptors>Pacers.

[RocketsRule]

O.o even I don't know about that one. I'd like to stay away from the Pacers if possible haha.

Their a playoff team but no way 5 or 6. I dont think their better than:
Pacers, Heat, Celtics, Bulls, Sixers, Magic, Knicks in no order are better.

They've done a good job but lets not get carried away.

[knicks=love]

The heat aren't good. Kyrie and lebron shouldn't be the only way they get into the playoffs of their team isn't filled. I also love how eagles threw his team into that bunch

[knicks=love]

Edit. Double posting dat ish

[Raps08-09 Champ]

The Heat shouldn't because they don't even have a full roster and gave up, but they have the talent to make it anyways.

The 76ers are good though. In the 4-6 seed range.
