This is an absolutely fantastic trade for the Nets. Definitely more than I thought they would get for RJ.
When healthy, Bobby Simmons is a very good midrange shooter and a solid defender. He is a better complement to Vince than RJ was. Yi has upside. This is an excellent deal. Jefferson's time ran out. He had to go. I'm very happy with the way the draft turned out.
I wish we would have gotten Webster. Not super pissed anymore but after this draft turned out, he looks like the better pickup for our roster.
