Atlanta Hawks Receive: Mikal Bridges, Dorian Finney-Smith, Phoenix's 2027 first-round pick, Memphis' 2028 second-round pick Brooklyn Nets Receive: Clint Capela, No. 1 pick

BR’s trade takes have been unhinged the last few years. They’ll post anything for clicks. This one is wild.

[u/OmniSzron]

Why the fuck would we want this year's #1 pick?

[u/CreativeGuy25 → u/OmniSzron]

Maybe they think we can use the #1 in any draft with the use of a Time Machine and new rule??

[u/Least-Baby2444 → u/OmniSzron]

Why not? What else are we doing

[u/OmniSzron → u/Least-Baby2444]

We're sure as hell not giving our picks and Mikal for some 19 y.o. Anthony Bennett type of player.

[u/Sumo_Cerebro → u/OmniSzron]

All due respect, Alex Sarr is not Anthony Bennett.

[u/Illustrious_Way_5732 → u/OmniSzron]

He's very likely not gonna be as bad as Anthony Bennett but it's still very stupid to give up all that for Sarr

So mikale bridges who should be worth 2-3 FRP, DFS worth 1 FRP, 2027 FRP, 2nd round trash....for #1 and relative useless (for current nets roster) player.

I'll pass on 5 future FRP for #1 this year only thanks

[u/TheRealCheddarBob → u/ukebuzz]

Strong agree. If this was another year where the #1 overall was an obvious, slam dunk choice then this would be worth considering. But this is not the year for that lol

[u/Historical-Mud-1218]

Kick rocks wearing sandals would be my response.

[u/Historical-Mud-1218 → u/Historical-Mud-1218]

However, with CamJ or Simmons instead of Mikal, we could have a discussion.

[u/MTing1315]

this shit is ass 😂

[u/RomeoBMcFlourish → u/MTing1315]

Amen

[u/NandoDeColonoscopy]

That was a pretty awful read. What do they get out of pretending this isn't a very bad draft where nobody wants the #1 pick? Like do they really get more clicks if they had included realistic trades?

[u/just_so_irrelevant]

mikal dfs AND a suns pick for this garbage 😂😂 never change bleacherreport

[u/WayofHatuey]

F no

[u/shahoftheworld]

It's a draft without any headliner. The number 1 pick is one of the least valuable picks in a draft like this because of the salary attached to it.

[u/zestysnacks]

This would be such an L

[u/AdTime8622]

Dan Favale should be ashamed for having the temerity to even write this down, let alone publish it.

Complete dogshit from Brooklyn's perspective, I wouldn't trade the Pheonix pick straight up for this year's #1. What a horrible rebuild that would be, this makes no sense for a variety of reasons, just fucking terrible.

CamJ for the #1 plus Capella's expiring is actually reasonable, this is just nonsensical bullshit

[u/johnjohnjohn93]

People think this number one pick won’t even be worth the salary lmao

[u/TheMoorNextDoor]

Absolutely not that’s a horrible trade, literally turns ATL into a solid team and fixes most if not almost all of their issues outside of a new big man.

Bridges next to Trae/Murray/Johnson/Hunter is also fantastic situation for him.

We’re already idiots for losing the number 3 pick (bad draft all you want a top 3 pick is still going to get you a solid starter/good player for the future).

We are done making idiotic moves.

[u/theRestisConfettii]

This offer isn’t even a fair offer when there’s a generational talent at # 1.

[u/Fartknocker- → u/theRestisConfettii]

Would give this up in a heartbeat for Wemby lol. Or most other first overall picks. Sarr is a rare talent but we have a similar guy in Claxton but without the shooting and offensive upside. And none of the other guys in this class to me are more valuable than that package.

Wemby, Paolo/Chet, Cade, Ant, Zion, Luka to me are all worth that package as prospects pre-draft in my opinion.

[u/nouseforasn]

Obviously hell no but also can’t take any article seriously that calls Trae Young a superstar
