    Just pick up Robin for free this summer and move Plumlee to PF. As for defense, that won't change under the current coach.

    Unless a team believes he fits their style of play and his stats with Portland don't mean as much. We do that all the time with players we fans want to trade for. I have no idea if he fits the Nets style. They might be happy just to get a quality player that is signed for a few years. For what ever reason, Brooklyn has yet to be a free agency destination....

    No.
    A shit is something which is 100% useless, Lopez is more like a cold Pizza from last night.

    He has an attribute we desperately need (scoring in the paint).

    What? are we some elite franchise now that we can't accept Brook Lopez as our 3rd best player?

    That's too bad because he ain't coming back.
    Neil basically had a night with him and then threw him out of bed without calling the next day.

    Where's the risk in losing Meyers or Plumlee and Turner?? are you THAT in love with them?

    They are the Nets.
    They gave us Lillard for Gerald Wallace, they gave their draft picks for a 40 year old Kevin Garnett.

    Brook Lopez is so mu9ch better than Meyers at scoring inside, and is a better defender.

    disagree...Brook to me sucks on defense pretty badly...watched CJ post him up when we played them....not a rim protector...his brother sure is though..I'd bring back Robin before breaking the bank for Brook.....I'd take Vucevic over either of them..guy is a scoring, rebounding machine
