Meh. It's an interesting idea, but I see several problems:
1. It's not a rumor. It's a clearly a trade proposal by a Nets homer.
2. Brooklyn gets the best player in the deal and dumps the worst contract (KP is more expensive but he actually plays. DAJ has been a healthy DNP since early May).
3. Brooklyn only gives up one player of any value that they have under contract. If Dallas likes Dinwiddie they can just sign him.
4. A trade involving a '21 draft pick and a S&T doesn't make any sense timing-wise.
5. Why include Maxi and DAJ? They're not required to make the deal legal, and that's a big negative move for Dallas. That just reeks of a Brooklyn fan getting greedy.
6. With the way he's treated in the NY media, are we sure KP wants to go to Brooklyn?
If you reduce it to Dinwiddie/Harris for KP, I could maybe see it. That's two productive players for one and leaves room for other upgrades. Picks would also be great, but see #4. And even if one likes the idea, I could just as easily see Dallas signing Dinwiddie as a FA and trading KP for something better than Joe Harris.
