Thomas Robinson wants "Long-term relationship" with Brooklyn Nets

Thomas Robinson wanted to be drafted by the Nets in 2012 ... But the Nets traded their pick to Portland. He thought he was headed to Brooklyn last February after he was waived by Denver but Philly swooped and took him off waivers to get above the CBA "salary floor."

Now, he's on the roster, signed to a two-year vets' minimum deal with a player option. He told the Kathryn Pryzbala he wants to stay ... For a while

"I’m glad I’m finally here and hopefully we can make this a long-term relationship," he said.
