[Feigen] Rockets jump to the top four with the Nets’ pick, a reminder of why they insisted on as many unprotected picks as they could get in the James Harden trade. Had a 20.3% chance to make this jump.

    Future is bright.

    And I don’t mean Brooklyn lol.

    The Beard continues to give back to the city. Thanks for the competitiveness and the strippers funded

  3. thepriceisonthecan

    Good thing we wont go through a proper rebuild though, we are trying to go for round 3 on this instand contender crap rather than building through the draft

  4. Superawesomecoolman

    I’ll take #3! I’m just happy we beat the Spurs this year.

  5. lopea182

    Is this one of the ones that they could have gotten back for Mikal or PHX picks?

    If so, yikes!

  6. Brooklyn trading picks for a big 3 and getting shafted

    Name a better duo

  7. TheWestRemembers

    Lmao is this the pick they would’ve gotten back along with Jalen Green for Bridges??

  8. God exists and he’s a rockets fan (please ignore the past 28 years of our existence)

  9. gracechurch

    Brooklyn just love giving up top 5 picks.

  10. Crazy how the Nets did this AGAIN lol

    Did they not remember getting roasted for the Celtics trade?

  11. lambopanda

    Is this one of the pick Nets didn’t want for Bridges?

  12. superhappyfuntime13

    Petition for a stripper pole statue in front of Toyota Center

  13. Harden trade was a masterclass. CP3 for Westbrook was a complete disaster

  14. TheOneWithThePorn12

    Wonder who is gonna get their picks next decade.

  15. 12footjumpshot

    The Rocket have had some crazy luck last few seasons. Keeping their pick in 2021 with a 50/50 chance. Oladipo turning down a contract. The Nets turning down the Bridges for Green + Nets picks trade. Jumping up in this draft with a Nets pick.

  16. KrustyKrabPizzaMan

    Sean Marks has to go. Dumb fuck cost us a top 3 pick. Worst GM in recent memory (even worse than Billy King)

  17. TuqiDuque12

    Remembering fondly defending that deal from Houston and getting downvoted because they didn’t chose the Ben Simmons path

  18. It’s OK, Brooklyn. Only 3 more years of this left.

  19. RGPISGOOD

    If Nets strike out on star FA this summer, they’re just gonna get worse.

  20. All the people that hated that trade could not have been more wrong. Got Jalen Green, Cam Whitmore, and the third pick in 2024 all as results of that move.

    Edit: AND Tari Eason

  21. SigmaColts

    The Rockets are both paying for Westbrook and benefitting from Harden moving forward

  22. Major_Wager75

    This Rockets team is already dealing…now they get a top 4 pick. Going to be monsters next season

  23. hidey_ho_nedflanders

    Nets do a tremendous job rebuilding for other teams. First the Celtics now the Rockets

  24. Professional-Fuel625

    Weren’t Tatum and Jaylen both #3 picks from the Nets?

  25. albino-snowman

    daily reminder the nets turned down the #3 pick, next years pick, the 2026 swap, and jalen green for mikal bridges.

  26. sorendiz

    Not *complaining* about this by any means but would have been happier to see this happen in just about any other year. Still, we take those

  27. girth_br00ks

    Picks unprotected like James at the scrip club
