He was pretty drat good for Brooklyn too. With hindsight there are probably a lot of things the Nets should've done differently over the years.

I love the raw description of that trade:

January 13, 2021: As part of a 4-team trade, traded by the Brooklyn Nets with Taurean Prince to the Cleveland Cavaliers; the Brooklyn Nets traded Rodions Kurucs, a 2021 1st round draft pick, a 2022 1st round draft pick, a 2023 1st round draft pick, a 2024 1st round draft pick, a 2025 1st round draft pick, a 2026 1st round draft pick and a 2027 1st round draft pick to the Houston Rockets; the Brooklyn Nets traded Caris Levert to the Indiana Pacers; the Cleveland Cavaliers traded a 2024 2nd round draft pick to the Brooklyn Nets; the Cleveland Cavaliers traded Dante Exum and a 2022 1st round draft pick to the Houston Rockets; the Houston Rockets traded James Harden to the Brooklyn Nets; the Houston Rockets traded a 2023 2nd round draft pick to the Indiana Pacers; and the Indiana Pacers traded Victor Oladipo to the Houston Rockets. 2024 2nd-rd pick is CLE own Houston has the option to swap 1st round draft picks with Brooklyn in 2021. Pick not swapped. Houston has the option to swap 1st round draft picks with Brooklyn in 2023 Houston has the option to swap 1st round draft picks with Brooklyn in 2025 Houston has the option to swap 1st round draft picks with Brooklyn in 2027 2022 1st-rd draft pick is MIL own 2023 2nd-rd pick is HOU own

His rate stats really aren't even that far off his career norms. He's just finally getting the chance to play a full slate of starter's minutes and he shoots a bit more often. He's always been a quality player.

At the time I couldn't believe the Nets gave him away for so cheaply and looking at it now, its even more shocking. Dante Exum and the Cavs 1st rounder this year for a guy who'll anchor that defense for years. Also shocking that the Rockets didn't take him and flip him for more value

Yeah they moved him to make room for Deandre which everyone panned at the time, and then the excuse that Deandre was friends with Durant and Irving didn’t keep them from getting rid of him after one season.

The Nets have had so many opportunities to become the superior New York metro area basketball draw in the 21st century and outside of those two years with Jason Kidd they've utterly failed at it, which is amazing considering the annual state of the Knicks during the same period of time.
