Brooklyn Nets agree to trade with Atlanta Hawks for Joe Johnson, sources say - ESPN New York

Nets and Hawks have agreed to terms that moves Joe Johnson to Brooklyn. The whole deal is contingent on Derron Williams resigning.
Looks like the Hawks got next to nothing in the trade.
Nets receive:
Joe Johnson
Hawks receive:
Jordan Farmar
Johan Petro
Anthony Marrow
Jordan Williams
DeShawn Stevenson
Houston's 2013 1st round pick (lottery protected)

Hawks are back to the cellar. Didn't even manage to get Marshon Brooks.

I'm happy for Atlanta that they found someone to take that monster contract off their books.

I think Howard ends up staying in Orlando at least one more year.

When did they become New Jersey Nets? Seriously I missed that one like I missed the Miami Marlins at the beggining of this year.

Dwight said if the nets dont trade for him he'd play the year out then try free agency next year.

You mean when did they become the Brooklyn Nets? The answer is recently. Next year is the first year under that name.

Could the Nets use Johnson as a piece in a trade with Orlando?

Not a chance... Orlando will be using the Howard trade to dump contracts, not take them on.

More so would be Brooklyn's dream to build their own 'big 3' except they would still suck.

Noone should want that contract. I can't believe the Nets traded for it. He's got 5 years left on it, he's already 31. It wasn't bad trade-wise in terms of players, but the money left on that contract is ridiculous. Seems like a desperation move to get Williams to stay.

You're kidding right? They still have Josh Smith, Al Horford and Jeff Teague is coming of his coming out year as well as recently acquiring the consistent Devin Harris to the mix....I fail to see your logic...

Isn't Josh Smith a FA? Didn't see the Devin Harris acquisition.

chicago does not have the money. Sorry Nets because D-Will and Dwight are going to Dallas. Why does everyone think Joe Johnson is this great player?

I agree, Johnson is really good, he's just not a superstar but I think he's a great #2 or even better #3. A Nets team with Williams, Howard and Johnson is interesting. That's 3 All Stars.
