Remember when Jerry West vetoed a trade that would have sent Klay Thompson to the Timberwolves in exchange for Kevin Love in 2014? Exactly one year after that canceled trade, Thompson and the Warriors won their first championship in the Steve Kerr era. To this day, Warriors fans remain grateful for West’s long-term vision, knowing well that the franchise owes its golden run to the genius of the Splash Brothers.
Maybe a decade from now, Rockets fans would be thanking Nets general manager Sean Marks for undoing a trade that, had it gone through, would have filled them with regret.
According to NBA Insider Shams CharaniaThe Nets rejected a trade centered around Jalen Green and multiple first-round picks in exchange for Mikal Bridges before the Feb. 8 trade deadline.
