The Nets are FALLING APART…
The Brooklyn Nets are falling apart before our very eyes and we have to break this down because obviously amid this being pretty funny it also does have a huge effect on the male Bridges to the Knicks agenda and we’re going to continue to push it at Nicks digest
Until it comes true so let’s break this down what’s up guys welcome back to Nick’s digest it’s Chris here and we’re going to jump right into the video as we always do the Brooklyn Nets as you know today they fired head coach Jack vaugh several players had lost confidence in
Vaugh amid the Net’s struggles some within the Nets had concerned that vaugh could hinder their chances at Landing a top player SNY sources say now here’s the deal I don’t know who the Nets think they were Landing who that star that’s going to go to the Brooklyn Nets is it
Seems like no one wants to be on that team M Bridges especially and the Nets don’t really have too many selling points hey you want to come to a team that virtually has no fans because we built an arena in the same city as the New York Knicks and the Knicks Captivate
The entire city of New York when they’re good meaning that our only hope is that we happen to be good when the Knicks are good except last time that happened we got a bunch of star players gave up all of our assets for it all of them got
Injured all of them got weird all of them requested trades all of them are gone you want to come to that team that’s under the same management as of right now because I don’t think anyone does truly I I don’t think any Star would want to go there male Bridges is
Your best selling point on someone who you’re going to play with who’s their second best player realistically now like I mean claxon’s great he’s a great rim protector but no one’s coming to a team to play with Nick Nick Claxton and outside of that you got cam Thomas no
One really wants to go play with the ball hog who plays no defense that’s pretty much International that no one wants to play with that guy whoever that is not cam Thomas especially I mean any player who plays like that no one’s chomping at the bit to start playing
With that guy the type of player who’s not going to defend who you’re going to have to pick up the defensive slack for the guy who’s not going to pass the ball and shoot bad shots a lot of the time you’re going to trade you’re going to
Want to play with that the Nets have no bargaining shifts so I don’t understand why that’s an issue but it is Ian Begley mentions that including some players losing confidence in the coach mid team struggles there was also some internal concern about impact on attracting star players and The Logical assumption is
That the front office could be next for some changes if the Nets don’t turn this season around meaning Shawn marks the net GM or president whatever the hell he is is in Jeopardy of losing his job he’s at the job for a while and when the Nets
Were bad he did a great job on turning them around he made a lot of smart moves he got them back to a land of mediocrity but also with their draft picks there was a good sign they were led by a young exciting player in D’Angelo Russell in a
Time when the New York Knicks were on their way to a 17-65 season the Nets captured the heart of a lot of New York basketball fans and basketball fans in general they had Theo Pinson on the sideline getting sturdy it was a fun team to root for if you were Brooklyn
Nets fan since then the Nets have just really done what should have worked in signing those guys but it didn’t they got injured and they probably would have won in 2021 if we’re being honest but they didn’t win and then Kyrie kept being weird James Harden demanded a
Trade pretty quietly and shout out to James Harden for demanding a trade quietly for once although it still obviously got out because it’s a star player demanding a trade right after he demanded a trade before who knew that would become a pattern with him it did
Is it is and then Kevin Durant seeing all the craziness rightfully so requested a trade and then rescinded it to be loyal to the Brooklyn Nets new for KD then requested one again and it really wasn’t KD’s fault at all because the Nets were a disaster it’s going to
Be hard to come back from that when you’re Shawn marks when you beat the New York Knicks to the punch for the star players it is hard to bounce back from that when it failed so miserably when now you’re hanging on to male Bridges is you’re in a you’re looking at a team
That’s what 21 and 33 that’s going into the second half of the season two and a half games out of the play in hoping to God you can make that team so you can attract some star because you don’t even have your own draft picks to work with
The years that you actually have a first round pick it is the years that you were swapping with the Houston Rockets who lo and behold are becoming better and better one of the reasons they’re becoming better is so those Nets picks go up in value that is part of their
Plan and it’s working because they’re drafting well they drafted amen Thompson who’s been awesome alran shenon is completely broken out and was sort of an All-Star snub there have been some good guys in the Rockets their front office is doing a good job they hired EA udoka
Who should have been your coach Nets fans but the Nets screwed all of that up and now they’re screwed and Mel Bridges isn’t thrilled as you could look there there was like sort of an interview about this m Bridges was pretty vocal behind the scenes about Jack Vaughn’s offensive scheme Vaughn’s offense
Heading into the season was planned to be primarily built around Ben Simmons who had played in 12 games this season now look on one side I understand where Jack Bon’s coming from call me crazy but I do in theory Ben Simmons should be able to bounce back and still be a solid
Player he’s putting up like 14 points eight rebounds and 10 assists I don’t think he’ll ever do it for some reason maybe he doesn’t want to I don’t know maybe it’s his back who cares he couldn’t do that and vaugh failed male Bridges by not trying to build an
Offense around him right after male broke out and averaged 25 points per game after he got traded to the Nets That season this season he’s regressed back to 21 points per game part of that is the fact that he teams know that he’s the main focal point on that team for
Scoring so now they’re going to guard him like he’s the first option as well that’s because he is the first option honestly again cam Thomas solid player for sure not trying to hate on on him but they’re looking at M Bridges as the first option of that team and they’re
Game planning around making male Bridges struggle to score the basketball as when the Nets don’t get output from male they need it from the rest of the team and that doesn’t always happen which is part of the reason why they’re 21 and 33 I don’t think Jack vaugh was a great coach
I’ve heard from Nets fans that I know that Jack vaugh did not make adjustments that he had a weird offensive scheme that it was very freelance and that it was way too similar to the same problems that Steve Nash had as the head coach of the Brooklyn Nets when the stars were
There and that’s concerning because Steve Nash everyone kind of feel like oh he’s there to do nothing they just they just don’t they don’t want to coach Jack vaugh if you’re doing what Steve Nash is doing that’s a problem especially because vaugh had been in the organization for a long time he saw
Different coaches whether it was Atkinson whether it was Steve Nash he was there for like seven eight years before he became the head coach he should have known better he should have known what his former coaches did wrong and he didn’t and he failed them and male
Bridges as Ian Begley puts it from his answer here after Brooklyn’s lost to Boston berklyn played Boston twice before the All-Star break it was clear that M Bridges was was frustrated with the offense worth noting that Spencer deny also advocated in a non-confrontational talk with vaugh at
The start of the year for Clear definition of roles and hierarchy so vaugh again played this freelance offense I was yeah whoever could score go do it and that’s why we’ve seen the Brooklyn Nets have a lot of different leading scores in games whether it’s cam Thomas whether it’s male it’s usually
One of those two but also we’ve seen Lonnie Walker look like a first option there hasn’t been a clear first option for the Brooklyn Nets when there is a clear first and second option in bridges and Thomas is it the greatest onew punch ever No
It’s it’s far from it but it’s a start and you need to start making the play in and now the New York Knicks just have all the chance in the world to steal male Bridges from the Brooklyn Nets because of this male Bridges was obviously on the roommates podcast we
Saw the whole thing with Josh Hart just take the Nick sweatshirt on and that is so important just because he’s just tampering in public that means it happens behind the scenes all the time that Josh Hart’s basically just telling male bro come to the Knicks yo yeah come
To the Knicks dude dude Nicks come on it’s time like obviously Mel can’t fully control it because he can request a trade and specify that he wants to be traded to the Knicks the Nets don’t have to do that so that gives the Nets some real problems but also the Knicks are the
Only team in the NBA most likely that will be paying higher than market value for male Bridges and that is the important part that we have to look at here is that the Knicks will absolutely do that and no other team will and the Knicks could give up to five first round
Picks for M honestly I could see bogdanovich opt into his contract you have the same amount of money there between him and bridges you give five picks say a few are unprotected maybe a swap in there maybe two unprotected two protected and a pick Swap and boy on
Bonovich you don’t even have to give that much that’s a vast overpay but the Knicks can afford to do that and still make a move for another good player they have that amount of assets that is the truth with the Knicks they can afford to overpay for M Bridges who would make the
Team exponentially better because now you get the best defensive Wing duo in the NBA and arguably one of the best defensive Wing Duos of all time in male Bridges and ogan anobi with Mitchell Robinson there at Center that Nicks defense is Elite Julius Randle is not a
Bad Defender at all when he plays defense Jaylen Brunson works really hard on the defensive end and isn’t bad the Knicks could be an elite defense with Jaylen Brunson and Julius Randall at the helm running this offense it could totally work out so well for the New
York Knicks it could totally help them become just one of the best teams in the NBA more than they already are it would just solidify a lot for the Knicks it gives you a true third scoring option after Brunson one and Randall 2 you get Mel Bridges as your clear third option
It can kind of be a mix between him and anobi having them in the corners and on the wings would be huge they don’t demand a big offensive role they but they can take one on they’ve both shown that when they get more opportunities they have more than we are seeing from them
And that is so huge for the New York Knicks because you’ll get a team that’s going to work as a team to start we’ve seen the Knicks do that this year already they would still do it if they had M Bridges maybe even more because of male’s rapport with half the Knicks in
Reality it’s you know it’s the three of them it’s Brunson Brunson Hart D venzo and then obviously Ryan Arch deakino when he signs in the summer again but I really want to see this happen and I think the Knicks k make it work look I know the Knicks have not made a trade
With the Nets since 1983 I’m aware of that but now is the chance Shawn marks needs to do something whether it’s rebuild whether it’s something he has to do something the Nets are stuck in the middle they’re not getting out of it they’re not signing a star and they’re
Not getting worse the way out is you dig You Dig Down accept the fact that you’re going to be underground for a while but you have a ton of assets you’ll have c space you’ll be able to do something with it eventually you’re just going to
Have to suffer for a few years because this is not going to work and it’s never going to work because they don’t have enough assets to save this team and that is going to help the New York Knicks land male Bridges when the Nets accept that they’re going to have to tank and
Then the Knicks call them up and give them a better trade package than any team in the league and Shawn Marx has his back against the wall realizing he could lose his job he’s taking that offer with the New York Knicks guaranteed comment down below if you
Agree have a great day like video subscribe to Nick digest means the world to us and go Nick

Mikael Bridgess is NOT an ALLSTAR why are knicks fans going so hard for a 28 year old role player?hes a decent role player for a team contending but to go in so hard for him like he is a Giannis or Donovan mitchell dont make sense.
i think im getting knick trade rumor fatigue, no one can be happy enough with what the knicks have its always a thing.. since i can remember.. we just need to leave well enough alone and grow with in… we went from young to often injured.. .
Why overpay? At most he is worth three 1st round picks. BTW that is debatable. He is scoring 21 points a game on a lousy team. Is that worth several 1st round picks? I am thinking that's a big no!
Stop it already with Mikal Bridges! The Nets turned down FIVE first round picks for him from what I understand at the trade deadline— I definitely don’t want to give up more than that!!
Let’s just find someone in the off-season that can be got for just the $ it take to sign him! And if there’s nobody out there, we just draft somebody good, and we hope that we can either develop them or trade them for somebody that fits better. I mean seriously five picks? It’s not as if the guy is Devin Booker, Giannis, SGA, or Jokic…
RJ barret >>> Mikael bridges
Stat wise for a few seasons they averaged almost the same but rj barret has a better caresr and stats.i like Mikael bridges but no way does he put the knicks over any better than rj barret did but who knows.
RJ barret =Mikael bridges
I agree he would be a nice pieve but Stat wise for a few seasons RJ and Mikael averaged almost the same but rj barret slight better overall and has a better caresr and stats.i like Mikael bridges but no way does he put the knicks over any better than rj barret did but who knows.
Be humble lol not too long ago no one wanted to come here
Now, every NBA player wants to play with the NY Knicks 🧡 since Jalen Brunson join the team last year. They are already an elite team now.
The Brooklyn Nets shouldn't move to NY and compete with the NY Knicks 🧡, they are becoming a big "Joke" in the NBA.
I put the blame on Durant, Kyrie, & Harden 🤡 .They have destroyed the Brooklyn Nets organization without any remorse.
Now many players from the Brooklyn Nets want out, including Bridges.
😡💢
JALEN BRUNSON WANTS BRIDGES IN THE WORST WAY AND BRUNSON BELIEVE ME JIM DOLAN WILL LISTEN TO BRUNSON OVER TIBBS ROSE AND WEST PERIOD
Hello good night l knicks fan the 5:53 need l talk you 100 the knicks need big super stars this player his not big super star his star the knicks not need this player l knicks fan thanks you very much. Good night
Look Bruh ,I don't know how you judge players,But Not everyone is an allstar.We kinda seen that debacle on Sunday's garbage so. That Allstar ISHT is overrated,But he would be a good fit.He's a good player I'd rather get KAT though😏
The NETS made a big mistake leaving Jersey, should have stayed their Ass in Jersey, in Newark or the Meadowlands The Knicks own all of NY. They'll never displace the Knicks in the City N E V E R
Now it's a good chance to get Bridges😂
Trade deadline over, there will be no trades
Then Knicks are not the team with the most assets. OKC, Utah and New Orleans have more picks and players than the Knicks to make a deal.
Last Knick/Nets trade was 41 years ago, 1983. Non story as this has no chance of happening.
This has been a kNick Town. The Nets now are what the Knicks used to be Rose. They gambled on Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving and James harden… Not the most loyal players.
If this team is going to be competitive for the in Brunson years 5 picks may be doable. Especially if you can keep all your peaces.
5 first round pick for Bridges? Come on my yute
Guys have to remember this not 2k sometimes its fit over talent to make a TEAM better and yes think about it Bridges another 3and D player with elite Defense, can shoot, drive, doesnt need the ball in his hands all the time and has size at 6’6”.. 3 guys that would be good is Mitchell (most realistic) Booker (would be great but who knows the cost) Bridges (cost efficient maybe cost less to get then the others and definitely would fit with what the team has built and not a bigger then team ego)
No he’s not a star pass
Ben Simmons is the new Andrea bargnari lmao no cap
