For the culture, the Brooklyn Nets shouldn’t trade Joe Harris. Bobby Marks, a former member of the Nets front office, believes he will be.
Doing so would be a mistake with both short and long-term repercussions. For starters, trading away Harris would continue a troubling trend.
When the Nets acquired big man Jahlil Okafor, it came at the expense of Sean Kilpatrick. While Kilpatrick didn’t often play this season in Brooklyn, even after all of the guard troubles, he was a symbol of the culture Brooklyn promotes and embraces.
He was picked out of the D-League and blossomed into a legitimate rotation player for Brooklyn.
