With the NBA trading deadline less than two weeks away, rumors are flying fast and furious.
The Brooklyn Nets are at the center of the action and are going hard after Atlanta Hawks forward Josh Smith, sources told ESPN.com?s Chris Broussard.
The two teams are engaged in talks, but one source told ESPN.com that "nothing is close yet."
The Nets are willing to move forward Kris Humphries and shooting guard MarShon Brooks for Smith, according to the report. But it will take more than that, with one source telling ESPN.com that the Hawks want Brooklyn's first-round pick.
Hawks shooting guard Anthony Morrow has also come up in some Smith-Hawks-Nets trade scenarios, according to the report. Morrow was dealt to the Hawks in last summer's trade that landed the Nets shooting guard Joe Johnson.
The Nets have also been linked to Charlotte Bobcats guard Ben Gordon in trade rumors, with Brooklyn giving up Humphries in a potential deal. Acquiring Smith is a bigger priority for the Nets, however, according to Broussard.
Smith, a pending free agent, has been mentioned in trade rumors for most of the season, but with the Hawks battling for a spot in the Eastern Conference playoffs, there is no telling what they will do.
This season, Smith is averaging 16.9 points and 8.5 rebounds.
The trade deadline is Feb. 21.
