Brooklyn has traded forward Thad Young to the Indiana Pacers for the 20th pick and a future 2nd rounder, league sources tell @TheVertical.

Bird grabbing a solid player for a pretty much worthless pick, while also doing his Celtics a favor.

I know Thad Young isnt very useful and wont be on our long-term contract, but just a 20th pick seriously? I see this more of a salary dump for the Nets, as Young's contract was seriously overpaid by the imbecile known as Billy King. In this case, its not too shabby, throwing away a $12m/yr garbage contract for a pick.

The Nets and Knicks are both terrible but I'd much rather be in our spot and I'm not kidding. #PopTreeFam

At the very least, we nets fans are realistic and rational supporters who just want our team to get better and better everyday, and gradually build a contender team in a few years timespan. Knicks fans, meanwhile, think they are getting everyone, all the superstars. Cant even list how many threads knicks trolls have made about luring Durant or even Lebron.

You act like you aint butthurt about the nets, posting in a nets threads yourself like an idiot.

It's embarrassing to watch. I love the fact that the Knicks are not going to win a thing in the near future and won't even scrounge out an ECF appearance. It's awesome. They haven't proven it on their own yet, but I trust our new regime to build things the right way before I trust this desperate Zen Master. What a disaster this would truly be if they weren't able to get Kristaps.

PLEASE let them resign Rose and have Rose, Melo, and one of DeRozan or Dwight on one team for the next 3-4 years. I'm BEGGING you, NY.

Yeah, they will sign Derozan for $35/yr and then resign Rose for $25m/yr. So well-deserved contracts, the reason why those players want to play for the Knicks.

Great pick up for Pacers. Good rotation player at a pretty good number for the next 2 to 3 years.

I like the Nets moving him, but I'd want more than just the 20th pick when Teague on an expiring just netted a 12.

Genius Bird , as usual .

I think the Nets basically just wanted to dump Thad Young's contract. Young is okay as a player, but the contract clearly was overpaid by Billy King the Imbecile. Wish we could've gotten a better pick than 20, but I am fine with it.

Guess we know the who won the argument of 'what position is PG going to play'.

Nice pick up on their part. Still don't think it makes them a contender, but they are likely a top 3 team in the east.

A 20th pick? Really? Hm.
