  • The Brooklyn Nets have been one of the most surprising teams in 2019 and they are looking to lock up a playoff spot. Their success is even more impressive after managing to recover from Billy King's Reign of terror during his time as the Nets General Manager.
    This timeline starts with Mikhail Prokhorov buying the New Jersey Nets and relives the reactions to the Deron Williams, Gerald Wallace, Joe Johnson and of course the blockbuster Celtics Trade.
    This failed rebuild highlights how even moves that are viewed positively at the the time can turn terribly wrong.

    Hey Guys! I remade the Nets video. Making this a 2 part video, this one covering the Billy King disaster then the next one will be how they rebuilt. I am a big fan of what they are doing, super impressive! Which other videos you want to see? Thanks for all your suggestions and support so far.

They made a trade to win now and it didn't quite get there. But they couldn't really not do those trades. It's turned out pretty ok now cause they will make the playoffs just 5ish years after those trades

    Billy King messed up badly by trading away all those draft picks. Here's what they lost
    #3) 2011 - Enes Kanter (to the Jazz)
    #6) 2012 - Damian Lillard (to the Trailblazers)
    #35) 2012 - Draymond Green (to the Warriors)
    #17) 2014 - James Young (to the Celtics)
    #15) 2015 - Kelly Oubre (to the Celtics, traded to Hawks)
    #3) 2016 - Jaylen Brown (to the Celtics)
    #1) 2017 - Markelle Fultz (to the Celtics, traded to Sixers)
    #8) 2018 - Collin Sexton (to the Celtics, traded to Cavaliers)
    Sean Marks really cleaned up this mess, and only in a few years. These picks are the original Brooklyn Nets picks that Billy King traded away, not counting picks they got from other teams which they either used or traded, or any picks traded by Sean Marks when he took over in 2016.
