Nets really like Lopez, Lopez really likes the Nets. He's survived all February trade deadlines and all summers. I really don't think hes going anywhere, no matter his age or skill set. He's about 24 points from being the Nets all time scoring leader and last I heard Nets want 2 first rounders for him if they were make a trade.

Yeah. They traded a first round pick to the suns for Nash, then traded for Dwight that included a first round pick after. But they needed that suns pick(then traded to Philly) to hit first so they know what year they get the first because you can't trade back to back first round picks. So the first trade needed to be excited before this year before the first round pick to stay a 1st round pick. Now if it happens after this year, it turns into 2 second round picks.

Also keep in mind the nets are gonna be throwing a max at every free agent and RFA in sight. Last year everybody had cap so matching was a no brainer, this year they could realistically come up on an Otto or kcp

Dayum, I was expecting Wilson to come out next summer. I'm sure he'll be a first round lock this summer still
I'd take him in the 20's without hesitation

Totally agree with that last sentence especially as a wing. The only thing that would change my mind would be if he's an extra elite shooter at an early age.

Don't see any of the big RFAs (Porter, Noel, KCP) not getting re-signed by their current team. They could go after guys like Jrue Holiday, Ibaka, Gallinari, George Hill, Teague, etc. While they do have a lot of cap space, Marks doesn't strike me as someone that is just going to be throwing money around at guys that aren't worth it...

Thomas Welsch and Aaron Holiday testing the NBA waters I see.
They'll be back though.

Nice. Probably smart for them both, have a better chance at the lottery this year than next

Draft is top heavy next year. They both definitely would have went lottery (sans injury) next year. Still smart tho. I'm not a fan of returning for a sophomore season anyway if you're a 1st round lock.
I can't remember Gonzaga having any 1 and done's before.

You stack this summer projected lottery to next and I'm sticking with this summer as being easier to going lottery concerning Allen and Collins
Point is the timing is right to go now

There's a pretty obvious spot in the back end of the lottery for decent bigs. Collins and Allen will have no problem going that 11-14 range.

Late lotto money is solid and he's one year closer to the 2nd contract were you can actually make good money.
Free agency?

Zach Collins gonna be a dud in the NBA.
Gonzaga played 7 teams ranked in the Final AP Top 25 poll in 2016-17.
Arizona, Florida, Iowa State, St Mary's three times, UNC
His averages in those games?
7.1 points, 4.1 rebounds, 0.3 assists, 0.4 steals, 1.1 blocks, 1.6 turnovers
I really don't see what the hype is about.

Go back a few pages...Legit 7 footer that runs the floor, blocks shots, rebounds, has a decent offensive game and plays hard. Basically fits the exact mold of your modern NBA center. He only averaged 17 MPG because he was playing behind Karnowski. Look at his per 40 stats. He obviously needs some work on his game, but he's young, and as a late lotto pick, he has solid upside and could end up being a starting center in a couple years.

Or maybe his averages look like that c aide his coach played him limited minutes even though he was clearly the best player on the team
