The Nets want to trade for everybody and it has been that way for the last two years. They have been good not great with the moves they have made so far, but it appears they will continue to be aggressive.
The Hawks aren’t going to pay max dollars to keep Josh Smith, so they would be wise to get rid of him while they can. Here is the offer on the table according to ESPN’s Chris Broussard.
The Brooklyn Nets are aggressively pursuing a trade for Atlanta Hawks star forward Josh Smith, league sources told ESPN.
The Nets are willing to give up Humphries and second-year shooting guard MarShon Brooks for Smith. But it almost certainly will take more than a Humphries-Brooks combination to pry Smith away from Atlanta, and one source said the Hawks want Brooklyn’s first-round pick.
