This is the BIGGEST Fumble in NBA History – Nets Decline TRADE for Jalen Green…

This is a generational fumble by the Brooklyn Nets as Shams the athletic just came out and leaked a trade that was offered by the Houston Rockets an absolute steal for the Brooklyn Nets and somehow the Brooklyn Nets denied it now there is Rumblings there was rumors that

This trade or a package centered around these players you know it was rumored around this year’s trade deadline but frankly I didn’t really believe it given the fact that I couldn’t think of a GM that was incompetent enough to declined this trade at the time and now it looks

Substantially worse so we’re going to break down the trade why it’s time for change in the Brooklyn Net’s front office after this sort of move and how it’s going to affect the teams going forward but before we dive into that folks over 97% of our viewers are not

Theend n ba and a lot of the news a lot of the topics have you know especially on this channel surrounded jayen green lately because the man has been on absolute fire but this video isn’t specifically about his performance or anything like that but it does revolve

Around him because Shams just came out and confirmed a crazy rumor that was going around a few months ago basically the Rockets called the Brooklyn Nets on a male Bridges trade and Shams was told that they discussed a concept around Jaylen green and multiple first round

Picks and that deal was not accepted by the Brooklyn Nets and now look and obviously if you haven’t been keeping up with Jaylen green this season I mean he’s still putting up solid stats on the year 19 and a half points per game five rebounds three assists at just 22 years

Of age you know getting buckets left right and center but since shenon has gone down he has been putting up some dumb statistics I mean 34.4 points per game over his last five games games seven rebounds three assists we can extrapolate it a little bit further since the trade deadline you

Know since this deal was declined and Jaylen greed’s been averaging 23 points per night again six rebounds four assists shooting 36% from the three-point line and that percentage has been up to 50% over his last five games I mean Jaylen green has been on an absolute tear as of late and I’m not

Making this video to minimize anything of what Michel Bridges brings to the table he himself 66 you know 21 points per game five rebounds four assists he is an amazing basketball player on both ends of the Court definitely a better Defender than Jaylen green there as well

But in a vacuum considering where the Brooklyn Nets are at they need young Talent they need some pieces they need their draft picks back because it has been a disaster class for this Brooklyn Nets team since Kevin Durant has left they gave cam cam Johnson is on a big

Contract here now right now hasn’t really lived up to it and they’ve been losing games left right and Center I mean this is their last sort of stretch of games for the Brooklyn Nets and I repeat they don’t have any of their draft picks for the foreseeable future

And guess what team does the team that’s negotiating these trade offers with you the team that’s willing to offer you multiple first round picks for Mel Bridges you could get your draft picks back you could get your draft picks back if you dealt away male who’s not really

Leading to winning basketball here now at this point again male Bridges is an awesome player he’s probably not that tier one number one piece on a team you know so far this season he showed flashes of it last year with the Brooklyn Nets immediately when he was

Traded to the team but this season just really hasn’t lived up to that number one sort of expectation still is an awesome basketball player but you’re unwilling to trade him to get all of your draft picks back to get a young player with that star potential upside

When I heard the rumors of the time I just rode him off as crazy I was like no way they broke the Nets maybe it was second round picks in Jaylen green then you know I get the Nets turning that one down at that point but multiple firsts

Which again looking at the Houston Rockets first what they have available they they own Brooklyn’s picks these are the picks that are getting offered to the Brooklyn Nets in one of these packages I mean one of these nets deals I mean there’s it’s stupidity it is dumb it is foolishness like even if

He got a Rockets pick it wouldn’t be that bad but the for the Rockets to offer this is crazy in itself but for the Nets to decline the opportunity especially with the Hall of draft picks they got from the Phoenix Suns as well as the Dallas Mavericks for the

Foreseeable future they could stockpile these assets get a young promising young Prospect like Jaylen green onto your roster into your system grow and develop him especially with the concerns of male Bridges I know he’s under contract for the next couple of Seasons but all the chatter all the memes about him going to

New yor New York I guess he’s in New York now but going to the New York Knicks to play alongside his Wildcat Villanova teammates I mean it is beyond Preposterous is beyond crazy it is delusional it is just silly for someone in this front office for anyone in a

Front office to even consider contemplate declining a trade like this if you are the Brooklyn Nets and you know what’s going to happen now they they need to overhaul that sort of front there’s been silly moves being made by the Brooklyn Nets for the past few seasons now at this point

I it it’s crazy it dumbfounds me that this trade was somehow declined I mean the the Nets would probably have to throw in a first or something or at least do this steal straight up no extra draft Capital if they were to sort of Co back to the Houston Rockets to make this

Deal happen because again not only is Jaylen green stepping up when Alfred shenon has been out in recent weeks he’s been out in the lineup he hasn’t been playing but it’s been leading to winning basketball they’re going to overtake the Golden State Warriors potentially in the

Next week or so you know for that play in position they won eight straight games they’ won 10 of their last 11 we just made a whole video on the potential possibility but I still think the Warriors will probably Eclipse them but with Jaylen green we’ve seen it in this season’s past the

Nets needed exactly this so where do they go from here because the Brooklyn Nets have Nick claxon who’s an unrestricted free agent this off season he just made some comments coming out about saying I’m not getting the ball enough I’m not getting enough touches they they fired their coach sh vaugh I

Mean there’s been a lot of sort of inter turmoil especially Ben Simmons in the lineup or in and out of the lineup this season and him getting handed to the offense but particularly the Nick Claxton situation because he’s a guy that could leave for nothing in the off season he’s expressed his frustration

With not getting the ball enough in the offense if he leaves for nothing in the off season you don’t have your draft picks I mean the team is currently tanking right now unintentionally right they’re losing a ton of games you know night and night out maybe they try to

Revisit a deal like this I don’t think they’re going to get any value like this that the the Rockets were offered but you know be smart for the Rockets to potentially sell High especially if Jaylen Green’s numbers are a little bit infl with shenon out and there’s potential report that he’s returning at

Some point this season as well so they do make that play and push if they make a little playoff push then if Jaylen Green’s playing like this and then they have shenon playing well again Alman Thompson they they’ve been running an interesting lineup but Jabari Smith as

The de facto big man an undersiz Center playing that at this point you know it’s allowing a bunch of bunch of floor space for Thompson to be able to drive you know finish in the basket obviously Fred Van VY can shoot can set people up Dylan Brooks can space the floor the Houston

Rockets have a very interesting situation ation going on Mill Bridges would help their defense but I still don’t even know what they were thinking even offering up this type of package so I don’t know it’s pretty crazy stuff that this was offered and I thought this

Was kind of a rumor just to chatted about trade that uh you know the internet sort of ran with and you know they’re just trying to dunk on the Brooklyn Nets for just being a terrible organization over the past couple Seasons but nope coming from sham so

It’s very much validated here now at this point silly stuff but where do the Houston Rockets where the Brooklyn Nets go from here after this line trade let me know in the comment section down below again if you want to stay up to date with everything regarding the MBA
