[Diesel]

Three-team trade will see Nets acquire Jarrett Jack and Sergey Karasev from Cleveland. Boston gets Thornton, Zeller and a first.

Damn the Cavs are giving up a lot of talent here in Zeller, Karasev and a 1st.  They must be just about certain that they're getting Lebron.

Look at Ainge getting a first.   That's a pretty nice move.  What are the Celts trading?

[macdaddy]

Man if Lebron doesn't go to Cleveland he may not be able to play games there anymore.  Too risky.

Boston got some nice assets in that deal.

Dumb move by the Cavs. They should have continued to build through the draft since they have so many young talented players.  But instead they just traded away young talent in Zeller along with a future building block.  Even if they get LBJ, I just don't see it working out, at least not for a year or two.

 

Boston is the obvious winner in this deal.  Zeller is a stud AND they get a Cavs first round pick (not sure if protected at this point though).

 

So, on the bright side, if Miami is breaking up then the Hawks better win the division next season.

Cleveland is so desperate they gave away a first round last year for Deng even if they knew they wouldn't keep him... that staff is crazy

Adreian Wojnarowski: Boston gets: Marcus Thornton-Tyler Zeller, Cavs 2016 protected pick. Top 10 in '16, '17 or '18. Unprotected in '19. Twitter @WojYahooNBA - See more at: http://hoopshype.com/rumors/tag/brooklyn_nets#sthash.aIJ8UvHE.dpuf

Think of it this way: it either brings Lebrawn home or lands them another trip to the lottery next year (if protected) to add to Kyrie and Wiggins. I admire their swing for the fences.

You're implying you wouldn't trade Zeller, Karasev, and a 1st for LeBron...?
