Here we go again.

The New Jersey Nets have officially acquired two-time All Star guard Deron Williams from the Utah Jazz in exchange for guard Devin Harris, forward Derrick Favors, two first round draft picks (Nets 2011, Golden State 2012) and cash considerations, Nets General Manager Billy King announced. Utah Jazz got some real key pieces in return.

im a nets fan and utah def got better part of deal. why are nets getting rid of their young talent and trying to win now? doesnt make sense. they dont have the pieces to do it. they should have drafted wesley johnson, not make this trade, and have another top pick this year like irving or sullinger. if anything, trade devin harris for another top draft pick.

Yea, I don't understand why they gave up their core young talent for just one star. I assume Deron Williams will be miserable in New Jersey for a long time. "Williams took some heat this month for the retirement of Jazz coach Jerry Sloan. The two had disagreed during halftime of a home loss to the Bulls on Feb. 9. Sloan retired the next day." My guess is that the issues between Deron and Sloan were much worse than what we fans have been privy to. Maybe the halftime fight was much worse than we know??

Im sure their relationship was much worse than the fans thought if it caused Sloan's retirement. Also, those conditions should have led to the Nets ripping off the Jazz who are in a rush to get rid of D-Will, not the other way around.
