Trying to rebound from the disappointment of their failed pursuit of
Carmelo Anthony, the New Jersey Nets have acquired Deron Williams from
the Utah Jazz in another blockbuster trade for the New York area.
The Nets will send Derrick Favors, Devin Harris, two first-round draft
picks and cash considerations to Utah for the All-Star point guard.
In a separate deal, the Nets will send the expiring contract of forward
Troy Murphy to the Golden State Warriors for center Dan Gadzuric and power
forward Brandan Wright, sources told Broussard.
Nets coach Avery Johnson said at practice Wednesday that he is "excited
about it."
"Rarely are you able to trade for somebody that's one of the top players
at their position," he said. "We know we had to give up a lot to get him,
but we felt it was worth it."
Johnson was asked if this was the Plan B all along if the Nets couldn't
land Anthony.
"This is not a plan B," Johnson said. "It was just one that wasn't announced.
One that nobody got -- until recently. He's not a plan B. He's a plan A also.
We've been working on this for a while."
The Jazz will get New Jersey's first-round pick this year, which is not
lottery protected and Golden State's first-round pick, which is partially
protected, next year. That selection is top seven protected in 2012 and 2013
and top six protected in 2014. If Utah has not received the pick by the 2014
draft, then the Jazz will receive Golden State's own 2014 and 2016 second-
round picks.
Sources told ESPN The Magazine's Chris Broussard that the Jazz get $3 million.
Nets general manager Billy King said the deal came together quickly.
"I had talked to [Jazz GM] Kevin O'Connor yesterday," he said. "He asked me
would I do something. And I said no, then I called him back and asked, I
wonder if you'll do this. And he said let me look at it. We talked a couple
times yesterday. And then I guess he visited with his ownership. I visited
with mine. And this morning we came to an agreement. "
King said Williams is a building block.
"I feel Deron Williams is the best point guard in the NBA. And when you want
to try to win you need a point guard and a center, and I think we have two of
the best," King said.
The Nets have Brook Lopez in the middle. He's averaging a career-high 19.4
points per game in his third season. But his rebounding has slipped from 8.6
per game last season to 5.8 this year.
Williams was an All-Star the past two seasons. In his sixth year in the
league, the 26-year-old is averaging a career-high 21.3 points and 9.7
assists per game.
Williams took some heat this month for the retirement of Jazz coach Jerry
Sloan. The two had disagreed during halftime of a home loss to the Bulls
on Feb. 9. Sloan retired the next day.
"Maybe arguing was the last straw, so there I am, guilty of that," Williams
said at the time. "But I think anybody who believes I could force coach Sloan
to resign is crazy. He's stronger than that and personally if I said that to
him, he'd probably go tell me to go do something."
More critical to Williams' situation is the fact that he can become a free
agent after next season and hadn't made headway with the Jazz on a new deal.
Utah could have faced the same kind of circus atmosphere that the Nuggets
encountered with Anthony this season.
Unlike Anthony, who could opt out of his contract after this season and was
allowed under the current collective bargaining agreement to sign an
extension with the Knicks, Williams can't opt out until after next season
and can't sign an extension until July 2011. The current CBA expires after
this season, however, making all contract talk uncertain.
Harris has played three-plus seasons in New Jersey after starting his career
in Dallas. He has made one All-Star team and is averaging 15.0 points and 7.6
assists this season.
Favors, who was a major piece along with Harris in the Nets' proposal for
Anthony, was the third overall pick in the past NBA draft. He's averaging
6.3 points and 5.3 rebounds in 19.5 minutes per game this season.
New Jersey has been desperate to make its first score under new Russian owner
Mikhail Prokhorov. The Nets talked with LeBron James, Dwyane Wade and Chris
Bosh last summer and when that failed they turned their attention to Anthony.
Just Tuesday night, the Dallas Mavericks were talking to the Nets about
re-acquiring Harris, according to sources. The Mavericks had shown interest
in the point guard in January and told the Nets the sides should talk again
if New Jersey didn't ship him out in an Anthony trade.
Sources said Dallas turned down a New Jersey proposal of Harris for Caron
Butler, Mavs rookie Dominique Jones and a first-round pick.

心得:看來籃網GM真的是個狠腳色 也或許是因為先密談了Deron的交易
所以一方面有恃無恐的陪著金塊一起坑尼克抬價
一方面其實又以甜瓜人生當煙霧彈 實際上的大計是找Deron來.....
