Brooklyn Nets have been one of the most famous teams entering into the All-Star break this year. Not for their intermittent performance but for the latest drama during the trade deadline. The team stole the spotlight during the deadline, with unexpected departures and additions in a span of a few days. Adding to the above list of departures, analysts believe the Nets might have paved the exit path for their veteran point guard, Ben Simmons, with their latest business move.

Though many players and analysts in the NBA continue to blame the organization for the bizarre moves recently, fans seem to back the organization. The hate for Ben Simmons which had settled after his comeback to the team has resumed on Twitter.

Though the departure might cost the team, fans believe Vaughn’s presence is a boon for the Nets.
