Nets trade Terrence Williams to Rockets; Nets get Sasha Vujacic, Lakers get Joe Smith

[brantonli]

Wasn't Williams sent to the D-League because of attitude problems? Hopefully guys like Adelman, Battier and Yao can straighten him out in Houston. But tbh, apart from the occasional highlight dunk, I don't know anything about T-Will, cliffs on him?

That's what I was thinking.

It's a smart way to build because it leaves all you cap space open. He keeps doing it. Hill, Lee, Budinger, Smith, now Williams. He was brilliant, he got Budinger to sign a 4 year rookie deal worth peanuts to lock him.

Here he goes again.

Daryl Morey once again wins if this trade goes through.

The Nets have begun putting into motion a plan to acquire several assets that the Nuggets have asked for in a potential blockbuster trade for Carmelo Anthony, two people familiar with the situation told CBSSports.com.

The first step, agreed to in principle Tuesday, is a three-team trade in which the Nets get a first-round pick from the Rockets and another one from the Lakers. New Jersey sends Terrence Williams to the Rockets and Joe Smith to the Lakers, who send Sasha Vujacic to the Nets, the people familiar with the framework of the deal said.

Joe Smith? Can he even run?

We just need him to grab rebounds

Trust me hes a nice pickup and he went the to D-league for stuff like being late to practices and by the way he had 2 triple doubles in th D-League

Essentially Nets utilizing their cap space to get a first round pick. Payment for taking on Vujacic. But let's be honest. A Lakers 1st round pick isn't that valuable. 25th pick? Maybe?

The Nets better be in serious discussions for a star(Melo)... or else I'm upset.

You got the wrong guy.

Tempo changing super 6th man.

Can play PG, SG or SF.
Racks up assists and rebounds like nothing.
Also can rack up shots and turnovers.

One of the most talented passers for a non-PG have seen, though his ultimate role may be PG. Very strong for his size, but close to 6'4" than his listed 6'6"/

You got the wrong guy.

He's an excellent rebounder for his size. 14/7/5 last 21 games of last season.
28/11/11 in 3 Dleague games games.

To make room for Terrence Williams' arrival in three-way w/Lakers and Nets, Houston to deal Jermaine Taylor to SAC for future second-rounder

Joe Smith not T-Will.

Why? you think Williams is that good?
