Nets got Deron Williams
- Thread starter killa kadafi191
- Start date
The Knicks have $45,496,089 committed in salaries for the 2011/2012 season. Chauncey has a team option of 14,200,000 that will be picked up, Brewer has a $4,966,356 qualifying offer which will be picked up.
In the 2012 offseason the Knicks will have $41,073,799 in salaries. This doesn't count the $2,067,880 team option for Toney Douglas.
The current cap is 58 million. I honestly don't see the cap coming down more than 5 million. I think the players will go for a reduction in max years and raises to try to keep the cap higher.
So even if it is a $53,000,000 cap the Knicks will have a little over 11 million in cap space. Would Chris Paul sign an 11 million dollar contract to play with Amare and Melo?
We just seen Lebron Wade and Bosh tie up most of Miami's cap space, so who knows.

As you can see nobody wants to put on NYET jersey.
TO ALL U NYETS FANS DERON WILLIAMS IS NOT STAYING AFTER THIS YEAR!!!!!!!!!!
Didn't they say the same thing about Jason Kidd????
Why u worried U guys can get Chris Paul for cheap.
damn deron found out he was traded by watching sportscenter... he was with his teammates getting treatment and saw he was traded. wow....i'd be mad too...
hmmm
How so only thing the Nets did was drive up the asking price melo.
Plus I thought this guy was who was coming
How in the hell did DWill get on the Market and we knew nothing of it Cuban???!!!!
Dammitt!!!
Rep, these niggas got D Will for Favors and HARRIS. FAVORS AND HARRIS. We get Jason Kidd for Devin Harris. That's our fucking luck.
Cuban likes this team and we're going to war with it and we will get kicked out in the 1st round again because we decided to rely on niggas like Jason Kidd, Jason Terry and JJ Barea.
Well its two different things though. Cuban had players who developed on his team so he had to give them contracts. He never had cap space. But you see the type of owner he is because he would NEVER let Deron Williams or Carmelo leave his team. NEVER. Dirk could've went to any contender and stayed. You don't ever hear about anyone leaving us.
Pretty much. Knicks fucked up. I said it before the Deron deal went down and its even worse now that the Nets got D Will for Favors and Harris.
you are posting shit that is six hours old
Did you post when Billy King said 2 hours ago that Deron was excited and was upset and worried about his wife who was pregnant traveling and his daughters leaving.
As Deron assistant said on twitter. Deron is upset with Utah and how they never told him anything.
Nice try though

Black Mamba effect
The Nyets hijacked that ninja! And no he didn't want to go to that team.
ESPN Radio - Jazz Writer, Jody Genessy
And that was announced contemporaneously to Billy King being on WFAN proclaiming that Deron was "excited" to be there.
Great move by the Nyets, but be real, you had to kidnap the nigga and he's not happy. He'll warm up to it though.

the knicks should play a game with the nets in the offseason when williams becomes eligible to sign his extension... knicks should call the spurs, t-wolves, indy and leak news of a rumored megadeal that would land the knicks tony parker, tim duncan and kevin love and the knicks would trade amar'e as part of the deal...then the nets being the nets would call those teams and try to make a 4 team trade of their own for those very same players and this time have the spurs request deron williams and the nets say yes...then after 2 weeks the knicks, pacers, spurs, t-wolves all come out with a joint statement saying "sike!" by then the media gets a leak that the nets offered williams and he gets so pissed he decides not to resign... lolol it would serve them right...donnie has enough friends in the league to pull it off too
Nah Champ, don't even bother. We got our guy, it's over we move forward. Let them bite at our ankles.
Just have to ensure that we get Paul or D12.

This move is superior to the Knicks getting Melo. Your 2 most important positions in the NBA is Point Guard and Center. The other 3 positions are interchangeable. Teams in the league tried to make the PG position interchangeable when the Iverson era began, notice none of those shoot first PGs won a championship. The Nets got arguably the BEST Point Guard in the game. The Knicks got the second best small forward who can't play defense on a college player. The Nets are sitting real pretty this off season. They are easily in contention for the 8th seed next year. Now since they have cap room they can sign Zack Randolph and Jamal Crawford on the off season for mid size NBA contracts. Utah on the other hand made out well because they will be getting a high draft pick and they have tradable young talent Milsap and Favors.
Now the BIG LOSERS of all of this is the KNICKS. The Knicks, if they knew any better, could have got Deron Williams in a trade this season (which the Jazz would have really entertain a trade with the Knicks Felton) and sign Melo on the off season without giving up Landry Fields and their center.
At the end of the day the Russian won.

So this is funny. The Nets get the best point guard and they still suck ass. Marbury goes to the Knicks and people say the garden is back.
This is just one step.
As I said before this is Jason KIdd all over again.
I'm trying to understand why knick fans even care. U got melo the player u wanted.
Sure The Russian up his asking price but had it been the other way around people would be saying how dolan is a genius.
In the end. Dolan is pissed that he had to do a move he didn't agree with.
U guys got melo be happy
I'm happy the Nets got the best PG for two players and two picks and nets still have 5 picks left
man ur sports opinion is void... u were talkin earlier bout the knicks should trade for joe johnson and give the hawks fields b/c they don't need melo but they need johnson...c'mon now... u may know stocks but leave sports out of ur discussions

Knicks didn't give up Landry Fields 
And let's dead this real quick: The value of the Nyets offer was "superior" to ours in every way. The Jazz didn't even bother calling the Knicks.
Jazz's O'Connor said only deal that made sense was Nets. Other offers didn't work for Utah.

The Knicks were not getting Deron. It's over, move forward. Now CAA is in the fold. CP3 will come and we'll be in the pipeline. Calipari on deck?

So getting Deron Williams who I'm about 90% sure won't re-sign with the Nets, has no legit scorer to pass to and plays in Newark NJ is superior to the Knicks getting the second best pure scorer in the league, a championship winning pg and salary cap in 2012 for Paul, Williams or Howard. LOL.

Dude enjoy this trade while it lasts. Deron Williams is not staying on that bum ass Rocawear squad.
Make a mental note of this.
eh...i guess but it'd be fun if sportscenter broke the story about it... seriously tell me u wouldn't laugh if something like that happened...
be real if that was true why did he only tweet that again.
Now tell me what Deron's assistant said and holla back.
I will say the same thing I said.
Jason Kidd wasn't happy to come to Jersey how did that work out??
show me a quote and nothing from basketballrealgm
Deron assistant has been saying Deron was upset and concern about his family and his pregnant wife
Brody netsinsider has already said the Nets are flying him form dallas to NJ then to join the team in San Antonio.
Also Deron is said to already had talked with Proky and can't wait to meet him.
So the Nets get Deron Williams and Knicks fans get mad????
I'm trying to get this. you got Melo so what's the problem.
True the Nets did some art of war shit but you still got Melo
hello..wake up
melo was going to take the nets deal,he wanted the money!....
they got melo and a top rated PG in billups
the knicks gave away a bum for 2 all stars
