This report is popping up all over twitter. No official confirmation yet.

Holy ****.

 

[JCribb]

Stunned.

Bergen Record (NJ Paper) just put it up on their website as well.

Wow!

Here's some confirmation from ESPN New York:

The New Jersey Nets are trying to rebound from the disappointment of their failed pursuit of Carmelo Anthony by swinging a blockbuster trade for the Utah Jazz's Deron Williams before Thursday's 3 p.m. ET deadline, sources said on Wednesday.

The Nets and Jazz, sources said, are closing in on a multi-team trade that would send Williams to New Jersey, with the Nets' Derrick Favors and Devin Harris going to Utah.

The deal, if completed, would also include the Golden State Warriors and involve Utah receiving draft picks from the Nets.

As I said before....


Holy ****.

Hey, guys! I think we've got proof that D-Will had SOMETHING to do with Sloan retiring!

 

[NCJazz]

Stunned.

Why? With him probably leaving, his disobedience to Sloan, and his bad leadership really not that surprised. Harris, Favors, and 1st round draft picks does not sound to bad. Not contending for a championship this year anyway. Contending for the 7th or 8th seed.

 

[Duck Rodgers]

Hey, guys! I think we've got proof that D-Will had SOMETHING to do with Sloan retiring!

That does make you wonder why the hell they got rid of Sloan too, huh? If they are willing to trade Deron.

 

[PrinceJL]

im officially with the BOO-BIRDS!!!

 

[NCJazz]

Hey, guys! I think we've got proof that D-Will had SOMETHING to do with Sloan retiring!

I think it was pretty clear this was already the case. Slight chance Sloan will come back?

 

[PrinceJL]

MODS, pls merge

Who is they?

 

[YB85]

I actually had a clairvoyant moment while I was walking my dog last night, thinking about the Melo situation and if the Jazz would go through it next year. I thought, New Jersey lost out on Melo. Why not take their Melo offer for D-Will?

Either that or he didn't appreciate being blamed for the whole thing.

 

[Duck Rodgers]

Who is they?

Just the Jazz. Some made it out to seem like it was either Sloan or Deron. Well, it looks like they are both gone now.

ESPN is reporting that Utah will get back Favors, Devin Harris (a decent PG in his own right) and "multiple" draft picks from New Jersey.

There's a very good chance that the Nets are lottery bound this year and maybe next.

I'll wait to see what the official picks are, but this could turn out to be an AMAZING trade in favor of Utah. They may have just cashed in on that Russian owner's obsession with making the Nets front page news.

 

[candrew]

Harris, Favors and two 1st Rounders.

Quite frankly, I've always thought Harris was over-rated

But Favors was my dream pick - he will be an all-star.

 

[fairweather]

If this is true, I'm done. DWill was almost the only thing that made the Jazz fun to watch.
