WOJ: Kings discussing deal for Deron Williams

[Embers]

Yuck.

Kings can and should be looking for better

[Collie]

Is he even better than Collison at this point? I wonder if these owners get blinded by Deron's old reputation.

[Ca$H]

They just go for big names with no regard for chemistry/fit.

[JohnMax]

[sammichoffate]

Please, no. Collison is actually doing really well this year. I don't want Sac to lose the chemistry they've built so far.

[magmo68]

Interesting

From Insidehoops twitter -

Darren Collison this season: 15.6 ppg 3.6 rpg 6.1 apg. Deron Williams this season: 15.6 ppg 3.1 rpg 6.8 apg

Gotta feel bad for the Kings fans. Their front office has been making retarded moved for way too long now. They deserve better

[It's A VC3!!!]

There is a reason why the Nets don't want him anymore. Deron is putting up 16/7, which is not bad, but he's been very inconsistent and cannot simply dominate a game anymore. Still, trading him would be sad because it would send a clear signal to Nets fans that the Nets don't care about winning until 2016.

The Kings are going nowhere with the roster they have, and the Nets are willing to take on their bad contracts.

A change of scenery would do D. Williams good.

[bigkingsfan]

Trade for Josh Smith too please

Garnett is done after the season. The Nets are not in any rush to trade him. It's the long contracts of Joe's, Deron's and Brook's that they want to get rid of. I don't see Garnett getting moved. I believe it'll be Deron and Brook that get traded before the deadline.

What do the Nets think happens in 2016? They have no young core, no talent (they'll be cutting it to get cap space). With the cap going up, teams like Washington, Chicago will have cap space for stars. Even NY, as dysfunctional as we are will have Melo + some young talent. LA same. Nets will have a blank slate. COME TO OUR TEAM AND REBUILD US INSTEAD OF TRYING FOR A TITLE IMMEDIATELY. IT'S OK, ITS BROOKLYN!
