Brooklyn Nets Hand Rockets #3 Pick In The NBA Draft Lottery, Because Of Course
The NBA Draft Lottery went down on Sunday and some eyes were on what would happen with the Houston Rockets pick coming from the Brooklyn Nets. It ended up getting all the way to #3 thanks to the Nets fumbling much of this season.
The Locked on Nets guys talk about the James Harden trade that sent the pick to Houston, but all of the Nets errors that led to the pick getting so high in the draft. It’s now happened to the Nets multiple times with these trades, and it’s a tough pill to swallow.

I agree with your assessment the nets should have traded Mikhel Bridges for Jalen Green during the trade deadline why they didn't do this is beyond stupid and in hindsight on top of that bridges has regressed back to what he showed back in the Phoenix days which was just a high level role player. The Harden trade still makes sense all these years later, why the nets didn't do the green trade is so dumb
Don’t forget the Portland trade for Gerald Wallace, became Dame.
Don't forget the Celtics and Nets trading for Garnett and Pierce for future assets that turn into J.Brown and J.Tatum😢😢😢
Nets general Managers has been doing the same shit for the past 35 years with trades and drafts picks. From Rod Thorn to Billy King to Sean Marks.
That stupid Houston trade comes back to haunt Brooklyn.
Well the news is horrible as a Nets fan. Another draft opportunity fumbled…. I will say this if they were offered their picks back for mikal bridges horrible move but if they wanted the Phoenix picks in return then I also would not have traded bridges. That's too much to give away.
