At 8-11, the Brooklyn Nets aren't in terrible shape this season. They're actually in second place in the Atlantic Division. But it seems as though Nets ownership and management realizes that they aren't a contender for the NBA title this year. So as of right now, they are reportedly willing to trade Deron Williams, Brook Lopez, and Joe Johnson to whoever wants to make them an offer:
For what it's worth, the Nets have not expressed a desire to simply dump salaries and start the rebuilding process just yet. Instead, ESPN New York is reporting that they want to try and shake things up a little bit to see if they can put together a more successful roster. But at this point, the Nets are probably going to have trouble moving any three of their star players, given their high salaries and their recent performances. So stay tuned to see if any trade partners emerge.
