I don’t mind using Jovic in a trade. He probably has a little value. He isn’t ready yet but could be someday. Trade him and a #1 pick, get Rozier, we are as good as anyone.
who the f is gonna want jovic 30.id give up dunc for rozier
You were recently having a major bromance with him and chastising Spo for not playing him more. Even asked ‘what can Jovic not do’, and said his d is impressive. You don’t think at 20, a rebuilding team wouldn’t take a flyer on him? He’s going to be a solid rotation player at least imo.
hes just too slow and lanky for nba dudes rc.more i see him dont think he can play.at a high level.
he cant get to the hoop and his shot looks off
I still think he’ll be fine in the long run.
He’s fast for 6’10 European white guy
I really like Jovic, but I did suggest using him as sweetener in the pre game thread. But it was for Murray, who I think we’ll agree is the better player. I wouldn’t rule out for Rozier, but I’d aim higher.
Either would be good, Murray may fit our needs a little better. I hope we do something before the deadline. Just one trade. That’s all we need.
Don’t need to trade jovic for him , just trade Lowry, a 1st pick ,and hh. Gotta save jovic for potential Murray trade.
5 herro one legged floaters, his floater game elite.
learned from dwade
lowry gets o pts we are undefeated keep it up turtle
Uh-oh, he had 2.
scratch that turtle u suk pls dont score
ok 30 man do we have enough.every day its a new story lol
No, not enough . But close, the Nets aren’t that good. Rozier, or any of the other guys we talk about, just one more, but has to be at least as good as Rozier. Hey, this is a good team, need to be great. Ty made huge strides tonite. This is the kind of game he needed, to come thru like that against an athletic team like the Bets. Very happy for him. And great to have Jimmy back.
Nets, not Bets
Herro got his clutch gene back
Awesome, grind it out, 90s style win!
Yeah edge of your seat. Did I mention that game was tiring?
Lol yes you did ,and I was even sweating a lil
That was a great win. I am so proud of them. They got over a lot of hurdles tonite..Go Heat!!
Great games from herro and butler!

Should’ve gone straight to the basket
Did not like that
Take it to the rack
