NetsDaily Off-Season Report - 11
We normally post our OSR on the weekend, but we figured we’d give it a few more days for things to percolate. After all, free agency began at 6:00 p.m. ET on Sunday. Surely, the Nets would do something in the opening days of free agency. Alas nothing. So here we are, three days late.

It won’t be complete till Saturday, but thanks to leaks galore, the final design of the deal is out there.
