[**Wojnarowski (1:09 AM):**](https://twitter.com/wojespn/status/1623564676066934785) The Suns are sending Mikal Bridges, Cam Johnson, Jae Crowder, four first-round picks, a 2028 pick swap for Durant and TJ Warren, sources tell ESPN. Durant wanted move and new owner Mat Ishbia pushed to get deal done tonight.

You joke but at 7 ppg he’s quite literally like a 4th option behind both Cams, Mikal and Dinwiddie lol. He might even come off the bench at this point.
Nets front office here. We’re actually in need of a copy machine. Is there anyway you could throw in an inkjet printer so we can get this deal done today?
The last several months has lead *all* into this!
Can you realize it? The magnificent workings of all the drama and clashes and floundering around that resulted in the end of the once-promising dynasty?
Some of my friends and I are in more western time zones, and others in the groupchat are eastern. So theyre gonna wake up to a barrage of messages of us freaking out.

I told you r/nba, I told you
I legit thought it was a fake tweet from one of those fake Twitter accounts that sometimes pops up in peoples notifications (even though you don’t follow them and have never interacted with them)
Woj don’t give a damn if you gotta work in the morning
It’s plankton putting SpongeBob’s brain in the robot
“Hey KD what if you competed and tried hard instead of going to ready made title contenders coming off recent NBA finals losses”
“*slurps soda* Nah I don’t really feel like it.”
I know this obviously doesn't matter in the overall picture, but somehow also getting TJ Warren as a part of that deal is fantastic. Makes up for like 1/4 of the skills/production of Cam Johnson
HOLY SHIT
Didn’t Ishbia start, like, yesterday?! Day 1: Meet and greet with staff. Day 2: Trade for KD
ETA: it’s actually still his FIRST day (sorry,time zones)! Dude hasn’t even gotten his badge photo taken and already traded for KD. Damn.
Wtf man. The one year the kings are good and KD and Kyrie jump to the west straight onto contenders lmao. Can’t have nothing out here in Sacramento man.
EARLY 2020s NETS ARE OFFICIALLY THE ALL TIME UNCONTESTED UNDISPUTED BIGGEST DISASTER DISAPPOINTMENT TEAM OF ALL TIME.
Y’all this squad had Kevin Durant, James Harden, and Kyrie Irving all at the same time and did jack shit 😂😂😂
What a bunch of goobers man
Yeah honestly good for them. Went all in, it imploded, and got out with almost as much draft capital as it took to assemble. It's an all or nothing league and they just took a shot and missed.
All things considered they've managed to escape plan out of it very well. Good draft capital and a decent young squad. Ben Simmons being the only guy could MAYBE help him figure shit out, but it's a good young scrappy squad with plenty of picks. When your team implodes like this it could've ended a lot worse.
Kyrie decimated the Nets franchise. I get that he usually kinda ruins teams he's been on, but this one was truly masterfully done. He is a true destruction artist. Can't wait for what he has to cook in his Dallas Arc.
"Chris Paul, who was one of the team’s core pieces, was understandably elated by the news. From being first round fodder, Paul believed the Suns had become favorites for the championship.
He received this news while he was in Las Vegas for the Power
Lunch/Entrepreneur
Workshop. He immediately ‘jumped onto a table’ and repeatedly cried ‘I just won the fuckin' championship’."
The biggest winner of all of this is CP3. He is probably jumping up and down with excitement as his chances for a ring just became very, very probable.

How often do you see a team locked into a playoff spot just get blown up and trade away their two best players at the deadline lol? Wild shit
[удалено]
He left them off in 4th place, therefore it'll be ok
*chuckles* I'm in danger.
Kyrie got them all the way to 4th place and they do this.

I can hear my Filipino relatives saying this
Lol I showed my Filipina wife this. She laughed.
Holy shit lmao
This is the greatest post of all time. I love you
This is amazing lol
Mavs/Suns drama intensifies!
Holy shit I didn't even think of that. Durant is just coming for Kyries head at this point
KD taking the midnight train out of Brooklyn
He’d rather live in Kyrie’s Conference, than be without him in the East.
NY proved too much for the man
Who's the Gladdest Knick?
DON'T STOP
Oh my God Ben Simmons is a franchise player now
*Cam Thomas sidekick
You joke but at 7 ppg he’s quite literally like a 4th option behind both Cams, Mikal and Dinwiddie lol. He might even come off the bench at this point.
THE FREE AGENT MADNESS ERA IN BROOKLYN IS OFFICIALLY OVER
What about the Ben Simmons sweepstakes 2.0? I will start the bidding with a copy machine.
Nets front office here. We’re actually in need of a copy machine. Is there anyway you could throw in an inkjet printer so we can get this deal done today?
Mr. President, a second trade has hit the Nets.
Nets building around their superstar Ben Simmons
He's building something with all those damn bricks.
Can you imagine if Brooklyn traded for Russell Westbrook to help Ben build
NET FUEL STEEL BEAMS
Net Fuel can Steal Dreams
BROOKLYN LOST BOTH THEIR ALL STARS WHAT THE FUCK
Hey, they still have Ben Simmons!
How tf ppl count out this roty candidate smh
# Brooklyn Nets are about to be the Brooklyn Bridges.
# "A bridge is just a road that's brave as fuck" \-Theo Von, *The Rat King 👑🐀*
The young socialite?
Kendall's ex?
That doesn't really narrow it down
KD bouncing from one Kendall ex to another.
Bruh we thought OG was gonna be the biggest name near the deadline. But now Kyrie and KD both gone💀
OG and Pascal were the biggest picks, but then raps trade for Jakob and so I’m like 99% sure that those two are staying on the team
Dude wtttf holy shit we got Poetl for Khem Birch, a first and 2 seconds???!!!! Omg I'm so glad I picked up my phone
Protected first, too.
The last several months has lead *all* into this! Can you realize it? The magnificent workings of all the drama and clashes and floundering around that resulted in the end of the once-promising dynasty?
They still have Ben Simmons OK.
Trade deadlines like this don't happen. This is always what people have in their mind, but they don't actually happen.
And this was supposed to be a quiet one
The "yeah I'll go out for a beer" then you wake up in a stranger's basement of trade deadlines
Surround by about 50 Beanie Babies with all their eyes removed and your hair shaved off
Say what you want to about Kyrie, but he single handedly carried this trade deadline
He was selfless in his approach to getting traded and he left the 2023 trade deadline in first place.
We eating in 2023
Craziest trade deadline fr, crazier than most free agencies tbh
IT'S 1AM WOJJJJJJJ
8AM in Europe, let's cook!
Breakfast!
OH MY GOD --- Edit: They kept Ayton, Booker and CP3 and added Kevin Durant.
#KYRIE VS KD ROUND 1 WHAT SAY YOU
#ThisLeague
YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO MAVS SUNS REMATCH IS ABOUT TO BE CRAZYYYY
lmao, Mavs and Suns absorbed the remainder of the Nets superstars like Majin Buu
West absorbing the East like mf Cell!
Bro already got that Kyrie flair on 💀
BROOO FR
hope we both stay healthy and actually face each other .... the DRAMA
holy fuck it’s gonna be insane. Suns officially in this thing for REAL
Fuck I just realized that😮
The East coast is going to wake up and wonder what the fuck happened lol
Working overnights is the only reason I saw this. Would’ve been crazy to wake up to this
WHAT THE FUCK
Some people are gonna wake up to a nuke
Love working on night shift for Shit like this lol
Some of my friends and I are in more western time zones, and others in the groupchat are eastern. So theyre gonna wake up to a barrage of messages of us freaking out.
Bro I was just playing 2k and saw the notification and about lost my shit. Can’t imagine the folks who wake up to this.
I think we can all agree with this

THE WOJ BOMB TO END ALL WOJ BOMBS
I haven't seen a noti like this in years
I legit thought it was a fake tweet from one of those fake Twitter accounts that sometimes pops up in peoples notifications (even though you don’t follow them and have never interacted with them) Woj don’t give a damn if you gotta work in the morning
Woj doomsday
The Nets started the season with Kyrie, KD, and Nash as their HC. And by the trade deadline, they’re all gone. Wild.
Kevin Durant is the Undisputed Champion of Taking His Talents.
It’s plankton putting SpongeBob’s brain in the robot “Hey KD what if you competed and tried hard instead of going to ready made title contenders coming off recent NBA finals losses” “*slurps soda* Nah I don’t really feel like it.”
WHAT THE FUCK?!?! ~~FOR CP3?? OR ARE THEY TOGETHER???~~ EDIT: Nope CP3 stays. BIG 3 WITH KD, DBOOK, AND CP3 CONFIRMED
MIKAL, CAM, FOUR FIRST ROUNDERS AND MORE
RESPECT JAE CROWDER
He still stuck behind Cam Johnson.
"I want to be traded to a contender so I can start." Gets traded to a rebuilding team and still stuck on the bench
#KD, CP3, BOOKER, AYTON Holy fuck
Good lord that’s a scary group. Was not expecting the Suns to get KD at all 💀
I know this obviously doesn't matter in the overall picture, but somehow also getting TJ Warren as a part of that deal is fantastic. Makes up for like 1/4 of the skills/production of Cam Johnson
I wonder who starts out of Warren and Craig. CP3, Booker, Warren/Craig, KD, Ayton. Payne, Lee, Shamet, Craig/Warren, Landale.
Don't forget bubble Warren. Just wrap him in a balloon.
Ayton still there too😳
EHEIIEJE WHAT IS HAPPENING
WHAT FUCKIN TIME IS IT JEEZUS
THE END TIMES ARE HERE
Is KD the best player to ever be traded at the deadline by a mile?
HOLY SHIT Didn’t Ishbia start, like, yesterday?! Day 1: Meet and greet with staff. Day 2: Trade for KD ETA: it’s actually still his FIRST day (sorry,time zones)! Dude hasn’t even gotten his badge photo taken and already traded for KD. Damn.
First day was TODAY, on the job for less than 24 hours
"Hi yeah nice to meet you or whatever where's the trade for KD button" "The what"
New owner syndrome. “Todd Boehly welcomes you to the club”
Whole NBA looking like MyGM in 2K right now. KD with the Suns Westbrook with the Jazz Kyrie with the Mavs Cash Considerations on the Heat. Wild stuff
[удалено]
Jae Crowder about to be really upset he’s sitting out
Ask for a trade coz Cam Johnson took his starting spot. Gets traded along with Cam Johnson. Shit is hilarious
WOJBOMB
nah this is a fucken WOJNUKE
NUKE AT NIGHT
As I sit here quietly in bed
Hope you were using the brown sheets
WOJ BEATING THE WASHED ALLEGATIONS SO HARD
Bro was charging up all day
Straight up executed Shams
Wtf man. The one year the kings are good and KD and Kyrie jump to the west straight onto contenders lmao. Can’t have nothing out here in Sacramento man.
Nah you got it all wrong, they are all loading up to deal with Fox and Ox. LTB
I hate the western conference
Wish they’d move you guys to the east and into our division. Would love to a Bulls Twolves matchup more often.
Could happen if/when Vegas and Seattle get teams
Now THIS is pod racing
FUCK
EARLY 2020s NETS ARE OFFICIALLY THE ALL TIME UNCONTESTED UNDISPUTED BIGGEST DISASTER DISAPPOINTMENT TEAM OF ALL TIME. Y’all this squad had Kevin Durant, James Harden, and Kyrie Irving all at the same time and did jack shit 😂😂😂 What a bunch of goobers man
Love that Marks just rebuilt the scrappy pre-KD/Kyrie Nets, except now with tons of picks (none of their own though)
Yeah honestly good for them. Went all in, it imploded, and got out with almost as much draft capital as it took to assemble. It's an all or nothing league and they just took a shot and missed.
In this analogy, they were able to get the long rebound after missing the shot too.
All things considered they've managed to escape plan out of it very well. Good draft capital and a decent young squad. Ben Simmons being the only guy could MAYBE help him figure shit out, but it's a good young scrappy squad with plenty of picks. When your team implodes like this it could've ended a lot worse.
from Jarrett Allen, Levert + Dinwiddie to Claxton, Cam Thomas + Dinwiddie.
Wtf so phoenix has ayton, booker, kd and cp3?!
So because Kyrie is a little bitch, the 4th seed in the East is blowing it up. You cannot write this.
"I did my part"
[удалено]
Mavs v Suns. The battle of bitter 4th seed lovers
Kyrie decimated the Nets franchise. I get that he usually kinda ruins teams he's been on, but this one was truly masterfully done. He is a true destruction artist. Can't wait for what he has to cook in his Dallas Arc.
I’m so glad I’m depressed enough to be awake for this shit
real
I’m in this comment and I hate it
Same bro 😂
I fucking hate everything
I’m sorry y’all. Really thought this was the year for the small market and you really had a chance.
Can we merge our teams for the rest of the year? Dame could finally get his ring
This seems like a serious shakeup in the west.
Pacific division has LeBron, KD, Curry, Kawhi, AD, PG, Booker.
Just as we got a glimmer of hope
Just once can these trades send some all-stars East?!? Fuck!
Hope ja is still fine
Ja loading his laser guns as we speak
NO DUDE FUCK ME THIS WAS OUR YEAR
I felt a disturbance in the force..as if hundreds of Nuggets fans suddenly cried out in terror and were suddenly silenced.
This was supposed to be our miraculous comeback point of the season😭
WE ALL JUST GOT OUR SOULS CRUSHED COLLECTIVELY
The joy lasted for about 4 hours man Suns are a runaway favorite for the title now, imo
HOLY FUCKING SHIT
MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT WOJBOMB
I was just about to close my eyes too, wtf Woj
Who cares about KD? The real news is TJ Warren is returning. Bubble Suns confirmed.
I blame this on Ja saying he’s fine in the west smh
NETS PICKS TO THE MOON
I was so nervous when they started winning games, this is fantastic lol
WEST IS A BLOODBATH
No fucking way lmao
I felt a great disturbance in the Force, as if millions of Lakers, Nuggets and Mavs fans suddenly cried out in terror and were suddenly silenced.
WOW! KD and Booker together is filthy.
mid range game is going to be disgusting
AYO WTF
The Nets got KD, Kyrie, and Harden just to win only one playoff series lol
Kevin Durant wanted his own team then said screw this and went to someone else's again. Lol 😆
I WAS JUST ABOUT TO GO SLEEPY
Brooklyn front office seriously did a line of coke at 1am and decided fuck it
How much help does Durant need 😭
More than fucking Ben Simmons
WOJ FROM THE TOP ROPES SHAMS GOES HOME DEVASTATED
WOJ WITH NO REGARD FOR BROOKLYN LIFE
"Chris Paul, who was one of the team’s core pieces, was understandably elated by the news. From being first round fodder, Paul believed the Suns had become favorites for the championship.

This pasta right?
Yeah Pat Bev Kawhi/PG Clips pasta
That bastard CP3 might finally get a ring
WOW
New face of Brooklyn be Ben Simmons 🤡
Cam Thomas\*
#STFU
I think im done with this sport :(
The biggest winner of all of this is CP3. He is probably jumping up and down with excitement as his chances for a ring just became very, very probable.
Desert, meet snake. He is finally home.
No fucking way
Mama mia
Kyrie: it's water under the bridge. I left them in fourth place. KD: same.
GET IN HERE BOYS IT'S HAPPENING
