Bridges is worth more than a few first-round offers from the Nets claim to have received five first-round offers from the Rockets or drop trading Green ideas

On February 4, Beijing time, according to NBA reporter Matt Moore, the Nets claimed to have received five first-round pick offers from multiple teams for Bridges, but even so, the Nets still regarded him as not for sale. Moore also said that with Jalen Green's recent outburst, the Rockets may have given up on the idea of trading him + first-round pick for Bridges.

According to the report, both the Pelicans and Jazz offered Bridges, but the Nets declined. According to two sources, the Nets claim that multiple teams have made offers for Bridges with five first-round picks. However, Moore said he was skeptical. He believes that even if there are five first-rounders, they may already include first-round swap rights, or set up strict protection. If it's really five first-round offers, why did the Nets reveal it and continue to say that Bridges is not for sale?

HoopsHype has reported that the Rockets and Nets have discussed the idea of trading Bridges with multiple first-round picks, including the first-round pick that the Nets gave to the Rockets in the Harden trade, but the Nets have not negotiated in depth and are currently at an impasse. Previously, Marc Stein of the Athletic reported that the Nets were reluctant to send Mikal Bridges even if the Rockets offered Jalen Green and returned the Nets' first-round pick.

Moore said with Jalen Green's recent performance improving. Averaging 30 points, 7 rebounds and 4 assists per game in the past five games, the Rockets have gradually cooled down the idea of trading him. So far this season, Green is averaging 18.4 points, 4.8 rebounds and 3.3 assists per game. The Rockets are currently 23-25 and 11th in the West, and the Nets are 19-28 and 11th in the East, with Bridges averaging 21.9 points, 5 rebounds and 3.7 assists per game.
