Why do cars now not get better gas mileage?

That's a perceptive observation—while engine technology has advanced significantly, the average fuel economy of new vehicles in the U.S. has stagnated since 2014 after decades of improvement. Here’s why, distilled into key factors:

⚖️ 1. Vehicle Size & Weight Have Skyrocketed Shift to Trucks/SUVs: Over 80% of new vehicles sold in the U.S. are trucks, SUVs, or crossovers—up from 50% in 2013. These are inherently heavier (+800–1,500 lbs vs. sedans) and less aerodynamic.

Safety Regulations: Airbags, reinforced frames, crash structures, and advanced driver aids add 200–500 lbs per vehicle vs. 2000s-era cars.

Feature Bloat: Panoramic roofs, power seats, advanced infotainment, and sound-deadening materials add mass.

🚀 2. Performance Expectations Have Increased Power Over Efficiency: In 2000, the average vehicle had 172 HP and 0–60 mph in 10.5 seconds. Today: 246 HP and 0–60 in 7.5 seconds—despite added weight.

Turbocharging Trade-Offs: Smaller turbo engines (e.g., 2.0L 4-cyl replacing V6s) boost power but often underperform EPA ratings in real-world driving due to turbo lag and driving habits.

🔧 3. Emissions Controls Reduce Efficiency Gasoline Particulate Filters (GPFs): Mandatory in Europe and some U.S. models post-2020 to trap pollutants—they restrict exhaust flow, increasing backpressure and lowering MPG by 2–5%.

Lean-Burn Engine Limitations: Stricter NOx regulations prevent the use of ultra-lean combustion modes that could boost MPG.

🔌 4. Hybrids/Electric Focus Divert Innovation Automakers invest heavily in EVs and plug-in hybrids to meet regulations. Gains from these vehicles offset stagnant gas-engine MPG in fleet averages, but pure gasoline engines see fewer breakthroughs.

Example: Toyota shifted R&D from next-gen gasoline engines to solid-state batteries.

🌪️ 5. Aerodynamics Hit a Wall Despite advanced modeling, drag reduction gains are marginal:

1980s sedans: Cd ~0.35

2024 sedans: Cd ~0.27 (optimal)

SUVs/trucks: Cd ~0.30–0.40 due to height and frontal area. Further improvements are costly and limited by design trends (tall hoods, aggressive grilles).

📈 6. The CAFE Standards Loophole Corporate Average Fuel Economy (CAFE) gives trucks/SUVs looser targets vs. cars. A "large pickup" only needs 25 MPG by 2026 vs. 52 MPG for a sedan.

Automakers exploit this by shifting production to light trucks—artificially lowering fleet efficiency.

⛽ 7. Real-World vs. Lab Testing EPA test cycles (last updated in 2008) underestimate real-world driving:

Aggressive acceleration

Higher highway speeds (75–80 mph vs. 48 mph test cycle)

Use of AC/heat

Modern engines optimized for tests often underdeliver on roads.

💡 Why It’s Not All Bad: Hidden Efficiency Gains Engine Tech: Direct injection, variable valve timing, and 10-speed transmissions do improve efficiency—but gains are consumed by weight and power demands.

Hybridization: Mild-hybrid systems (e.g., Ford F-150) add 2–4 MPG without plug-in complexity.

High-Efficiency Exceptions: Vehicles prioritizing MPG (e.g., Toyota Prius, Honda Accord Hybrid) achieve 50+ MPG—proving it’s possible without compromises.

🔮 Future Trajectory Stricter CAFE 2026 rules may push fleet averages to 52 MPG (vs. 35.2 MPG today).

Turbo-hybrid systems (e.g., Ford Maverick: 37 MPG pickup) and PHEVs bridge the gap.

Weight reduction via aluminum/steel composites remains critical but expensive.

✅ Key Takeaway

Cars are more efficient per pound and per horsepower than ever—but consumer demand for large, fast, feature-heavy vehicles and regulatory trade-offs have hidden these gains. The push toward electrification will likely accelerate net efficiency, but core gasoline engines face diminishing returns without a revolution in materials and aerodynamics.

When I first bought my car back in April I never let it dip below half a tank. Since I moved in September, I usually wait until it's below a quarter before filling up. Last week I let it run down to about an eighth, and it took a hair over 14 gallons to fill it up completely which means it has a 16 gallon tank, more or less. When I got it, I lived in an area dominated by highways; I would regularly get it up to 60 mph going to a from work, and it got decent gas mileage at 30 per gallon. Now that I live in a dense city with stop lights every 10 feet, I'm lucky to get 20. On the dashboard above the radio is a little LCD screen that tells me my fuel economy and how many miles I have left until I run empty. I've been tracking those figures against my odometer since mid-May, and it's not good.

When I got it, I would regularly outperform expectations. Say I drove 100 miles, the fuel range indicator would only go down 90, meaning I traveled 10 miles further than it said I should based on the amount of fuel I used. This slowly crept down, 10 miles better, 7 miles, 5, 3, for a while it was dead even, but since July I've been in the read. I'll drive 100 miles, and the fuel range meter will go down 120 or 130. Doing the math, driven distance over fuel range decrease, my best performance was 120% efficient, and the worst was 65%. Think about that. 65%, less than two-thirds, which means for every 100 miles I drive my fuel tank thinks I'm driving over 150! I'm burning through it like it's nothing!

I don't know what kind of math is going down under the hood, but my maximum fuel range has been dropping too. In April, a full tank of gas could supposedly get me 396 miles; more than that, actually, given my net positive fuel efficiency. Filling it up last week, same tank, same 16 gallons, it's telling me I can only get 323 miles. 396 miles on 16 gallons, the computer thought I was getting 24.75 miles per gallon regardless of how good it actually was. 323 miles is 20.1875 mpg; the indicator regularly dips below 20 when I'm stuck in traffic, and I can actually watch it tick down in increments of 0.1 when I'm at particularly congested redlights.

Sooner or later, it's going to get to the point where I'm less than half efficient. I'll drive 100 miles, and it'll use the fuel for 200 or more. I'll be lucky to get 250 miles on a full tank, which at present time would cost me $50 to fill from empty. Gas prices were higher this summer, $3.80-ish, got down to just below $3.00 even in October, right now they're hovering around $3.20 - $3.30, and as we enter the presidential election I can see it exploding up to $4.00 or more again, over $60 for a full tank.

My car's a 2007 with 132,000 miles on it, so I guess this sort of degradation is to be expected, but it means that it's going to crap out on me in a couple of years. Once I start my new job I'll have to build back up my savings so I can buy something halfway decent. It took me a year and a half to save up $10,000 when I lived with my parents, but now I'm out on my own and have rent and medical bills (I make so little money that I get a tax credit from the IRS that completely covers my insurance, but it's the cheapest plan on the market with next to no coverage, so every doctor visit is astronomical), so I expect to be stuck with my clunker until 2025 at the earliest. I just hope it'll last that long.

UTV vs. Dirt Bike — Which Off-Road Machine Is Right for You?

Introduction: The Ultimate Off-Road Dilemma

For many off-road enthusiasts, the choice between a UTV (Utility Terrain Vehicle) and a dirt bike can feel like choosing between apples and oranges. Both offer exhilarating outdoor experiences—but each shines in different scenarios. In this comprehensive guide, we’ll break down the critical factors—performance, cost, safety, terrain capabilities, and user profile—to help you decide which machine matches your riding style, budget, and adventure goals.

1. Performance Breakdown

1.1 Engine Power and Torque

Dirt Bikes: Typically feature 125cc–450cc high-revving four-stroke or two-stroke engines that deliver quick throttle response and peak power at higher RPMs. Ideal for rapid acceleration, tight turns, and jumps.

UTVs: Usually equipped with 500cc–1,000cc engines optimized for low-end torque to haul loads and move multiple passengers. They deliver steady pulling power but lack the top-end scream of dirt bikes.

1.2 Speed and Acceleration

Dirt Bikes accelerate from 0–30 mph in under 2 seconds (depending on displacement), making them nimble choice for technical trails.

UTVs provide 0–30 mph in around 4–6 seconds but can carry two to four riders comfortably while towing cargo.

1.3 Handling and Agility

Dirt Bikes: Lightweight (typically 200–260 lbs), standout agility, and easy to pivot around obstacles. Perfect for single-track trails, silt beds, and motocross circuits.

UTVs: Heavier (1,000–1,800 lbs) with four wheels and a roll cage. More stable on wide trails, dunes, and steep inclines, but less responsive in tight turns.

2. Cost Comparison

2.1 Upfront Purchase Price

Entry-Level Dirt Bike: $3,500–$6,000 (125cc–250cc four-stroke models).

Entry-Level UTV: $10,000–$15,000 (500cc–700cc models).

2.2 Ongoing Operating Costs

Fuel: Dirt bikes average 35–45 mpg on trails; UTVs average 10–15 mpg depending on load and terrain.

Maintenance: Bikes require oil changes every 10–20 hours, chain and sprocket upkeep, and periodic valve checks. UTVs need oil/filter changes every 50–100 hours, plus more extensive CV-joint and suspension servicing.

2.3 Insurance and Registration

Dirt Bikes: Often exempt from full registration if used off-road exclusively; insurance optional but recommended for street-legal conversions.

UTVs: Increasingly require registration in many states; insurance rates can be higher due to greater replacement cost.

3. Safety Considerations

3.1 Rider Protection

Dirt Bikes: Minimal structural protection—rider must rely on full-face helmet, chest protector, knee braces, and riding gear.

UTVs: Roll cage, seat belts, and optional side nets or doors offer a shielded environment; however, rollover risk exists without proper safety practices.

3.2 Skill Requirements

Beginners: Many find the learning curve for dirt bikes steeper due to balance and throttle control.

UTVs: Easier to master, more intuitive steering wheel and pedals, making them accessible for family outings.

3.3 Terrain Risk

Dirt Bikes: Better for technical single tracks; risk from trees, rocks, and jumps.

UTVs: Suitable for wider trails but can flip on steep sidehills if driven carelessly.

4. Terrain Suitability

4.1 Single-Track Trails

Dirt Bikes: Built for narrow, twisty single tracks, technical rock gardens, and creek crossings.

UTVs: Typically too wide for tight single-track but excel on forestry roads and service trails.

4.2 Open Desert and Dunes

Dirt Bikes: Fast and agile in open sand—easy to pump through dunes but more physically demanding.

UTVs: Stable over big dunes, can carry passengers and gear; perfect for dune bashing and desert camping.

4.3 Agricultural and Utility Use

Dirt Bikes: Limited utility uses—scouting or quick property traversal.

UTVs: Designed to haul equipment, tow trailers, and seat up to four people—ideal for farms, ranches, and work sites.

5. User Profiles and Use Cases

5.1 The Weekend Warrior

Prefers: High-adrenaline rides, jumps, and competitive racing.

Recommendation: Mid-to-high displacement dirt bike (250cc–450cc). Lightweight chassis and competitive suspension for trail or track use.

5.2 The Family Adventurer

Prefers: Group outings on easy trails, scenic rides with passengers, and hauling picnic gear.

Recommendation: 4-seat UTV with comfortable seating, integrated stereo, and cargo bed.

5.3 The Property Manager

Prefers: Practical utility, tool and feed transport, towing small trailers.

Recommendation: 500cc–700cc UTV with dump bed, winch, and heavy-duty tires.

5.4 The Eco-Conscious Rider

Prefers: Low emissions, quiet operation, minimal environmental impact.

Recommendation: Electric dirt bike (1.5 kWh+ battery) for trails; small electric UTV models for utility use.

6. Financing and Ownership

6.1 Financing Options

UTVs: Low-interest loans, lease-to-own plans, seasonal deferred payment programs.

Dirt Bikes: Short-term financing, promotional 0% APR offers on select models.

6.2 Warranties and Service Plans

Manufacturer Warranty: Typically 1–2 years for engines and drivetrains.

Extended Service Plans: Cover annual maintenance, wear items, and roadside assistance.

6.3 Resale Value

Dirt Bikes: Retain value well if maintained, popular displacement keeps demand high in used market.

UTVs: Good value retention for high-end models; depreciation steeper on lower-tier brands.

7. Making Your Decision

Assess Your Riding Goals: Adventure style, terrain, and passenger needs.

Set a Budget: Include purchase, fuel, maintenance, and gear costs.

Test-Ride Both: Feel the difference in comfort, handling, and fun factor.

Consider Long-Term Use: Will you eventually add passengers or hauling?

Consult Experts: Speak with local dealers at D&M Motorsports for personalized recommendations.

Brooklyn Nets Add Dennis Schröder in Deal with Toronto Raptors

On February 8th, 2024, the Toronto Raptors traded guard Dennis Schröder and forward-center Thaddeus Young to the Brooklyn Nets for guard Spencer Dinwiddie. Brooklyn also received a trade exception.

When the Toronto Raptors added veteran forward Thaddeus Young in a trade deadline deal with the San Antonio Spurs, it was the continuation of a theme. Standing 6-8, Young joined a Raptors team with a cadre of long and athletic forwards at the height of 6-7 to 6-9 such as Scottie Barnes, Pascal Siakam and OG Anunoby.

Young was the veteran sage off the bench for a Toronto team looking to get back into the playoffs. 31-23 after a win right after the deadline's end, the Raptors went 17-11 the rest of the way to finish fifth in the East with a 48-34 record.

Young was a mentor to forwards like Barnes and Precious Achiuwa and also established himself as a solid playmaker and screener. He made 26 appearances with the Raptors and averaged 6.3 PPG, 4.4 RPG, 1.7 APG and 1.2 SPG in 18.3 MPG.

Toronto matched up with the fourth seeded Philadelphia 76ers. Philadelphia took an 18-point lead at halftime of the series opener. 76ers guard Tyrese Maxey led the way with 38 points as Philadelphia won 131-111. 76ers center Joel Embiid recorded 31 points and 11 rebounds in Game Two as Philadelphia took the game 112-97.

Facing a 2-0 deficit, the Raptors came out aggressive and led by 15 points in the first half at home, but the 76ers made a run. Both teams traded leads in the fourth quarter of Game Three. After the Raptors took a 95-90 lead with 2:03 left, they went scoreless the rest of the fourth quarter. The 76ers scored the final five points to send the game to overtime.

In the overtime, Embiid hit a three-pointer with 0.7 seconds left to win the game. The win gave Philadelphia a 3-0 series lead. Facing elimination, the Raptors stepped up. Pascal Siakam had 34 points. After playing just 19 minutes and 17 seconds in the first three games, Young became an x-factor in Game Four. The forward played nearly 30 minutes and had 13 points, five rebounds and five assists while guarding Embiid for parts of the game. Toronto won the game 110-102.

Toronto established a 14-point lead early on in Game Five and dominated on the road. Siakam had 23 points and 10 rebounds as the Raptors coasted to a 103-88 victory.

Game Six was close in the first half but Philadelphia took control in the second half, outscoring Toronto 70-36, eliminating the Raptors with a 132-97 rout. Outside of the eruption in Game Four, Young was relatively quiet. In six games, he managed 3.3 PPG, 3.0 RPG, 1.7 APG and 0.8 SPG in 14.5 MPG.

Young re-signed with the Raptors on a two-year, $16 million deal. Other then a deal to sign veteran forward Otto Porter, the Raptors kept their core together for the 2022-23 season.

After a strong performance the previous season, there was hope the Raptors could build off of it. The team began the season a solid 11-9 but losses would pile up soon. Toronto proceeded to drop nine of its next 11 to fall to 13-18.

At the trade deadline, the Raptors were in 10th place with a 26-30 record. The club made a move, acquiring center Jakob Poeltl from the San Antonio Spurs. Lacking depth at the center gave the Raptors hope in the latter stages of the season.

Toronto played well enough, moving up to ninth in the East after going 15-11 the rest of the season. It left them with a 41-41 record. Young began the season in a bit role, even receiving DNPs from coach Nick Nurse. But Young handled it well and later saw an uptick in minutes.

However, Young was out of the rotation for most of the season's latter stages. He did not play in the team's last 14 games of the regular season. Young appeared in 54 games (nine starts), and compiled 4.4 Ppg, 3.1 RPG, 1.4 APG and 1.0 SPG in 14.7 MPG. '

As the ninth seed, the Raptors qualified for the nine seed versus ten seed play-in game. They hosted the Chicago Bulls in an elimination game. The Raptors led by 11 in the first half, but Chicago outscored Toronto 37-24 in the fourth quarter to win 109-105 and eliminate the Raptors from the playoffs. Young did not play in the game.

The disappointing finish to the season led to the start of a re-tool for the Raptors. Head coach Nick Nurse was fired. The Raptors replaced Nurse with Memphis Grizzlies assistant coach Darko Rajaković.

In free agency, the Raptors suffered a significant loss when All-Star point guard Fred VanVleet left Toronto to sign a multi-year deal with the Houston Rockets. Needing to replace VanVleet, the Raptors signed guard Dennis Schröder to a two-year, $26 million deal.

Rumors throughout the season continued to swirl for the Raptors into the offseason. Starters Pascal Siakam and OG Anunoby were both likely headed to free agency in the 2024 offseason and questions arose. Would the Raptors re-sign the two homegrown talents and last ties to the team's 2019 NBA championship?

The Raptors kept the two and seemed to want to stay competitive. Adding Schröder seemed to endorse that way of thinking. The point guard was able to find a team that paid him while giving him an opportunity to be a lead guard.

The club got off to a decent 8-8 start during the 2023-24 season but soon went 4-11 to fall to 12-19. Toronto began to make moves. Anunoby was the first to go, as he was dealt with Precious Achiuwa and Malachi Flynn to the New York Knicks for RJ Barrett, Immanuel Quickley and a second round pick. A few weeks later, the Raptors moved Siakam to the Indiana Pacers for Bruce Brown, Kira Lewis Jr., Jordan Nwora and three first round draft picks.

The deals sapped the Raptors of its veteran talent and now the team was pivoting to a rebuild around young forward Scottie Barnes. With the team continuing to lose and falling to 12th in the East with an 18-33 record, the Raptors made two more deals before the trade deadline. The club acquired Ochai Agbaji and Kelly Olynyk in a trade with the Utah Jazz. The Raptors also sent Schröder and Young to the Brooklyn Nets for the expiring contract of Spencer Dinwiddie.

Schröder's brief time in Toronto began with him as a starter. But by late December, the Raptors wanted to hand Barnes more ballhandling responsibilities and moved Schröder to the bench. Part of the reason Schröder signed with Toronto was a chance at a starting opportunity which faded even further away with the addition of Quickley as the team's point guard of now and the future.

Schröder appeared in 51 games (33 starts) with Toronto and contributed 13.7 PPG, 2.7 RPG, 6.1 APG and 0.9 SPG in 30.6 MPG. Young began the season out of the rotation but saw minutes in January and February thanks to injuries and the trades. He appeared in 23 games (six starts) and compiled 5.0 PPG, 3.3 RPG, 2.2 APG and 0.8 SPG in 15.2 MPG.

Over two years, Young managed 5.0 PPG, 3.5 RPG, 1.7 APG and 1.0 SPG in 103 career games. The forward shot 53% from the field, 29% from the three-point line and 55% from the charity stripe.

Spencer Dinwiddie joined the Brooklyn Nets after he was sent by the Dallas Mavericks with Dorian Finney-Smith to Brooklyn in the Kyrie Irving trade before the 2023 trade deadline. The deal saw Dinwiddie arrive for his second stint in Brooklyn.

Shortly after Irving was dealt, fellow Nets superstar Kevin Durant aimed for a trade (for a second time) and was soon sent to the Phoenix Suns for a massive haul including Mikal Bridges, Cameron Johnson, and several first round draft picks and pick swaps.

By dealing away Irving and Durant, Brooklyn was officially out of any championship contention talks, but since they didn't own their own draft picks, the franchise wanted to stay competitive. With the several veterans acquired, Brooklyn looked to keep up in the East playoff race the rest of the year.

32-22 at the trade deadline, Brooklyn went 13-15 the rest of the season, finishing sixth in the East. Dinwiddie was elevated to starting point guard after the trade.

Though his shooting numbers (28.9% on 5.7 three-point attempts per game and 46.5% effective field goal shooting) were subpar, Dinwiddie flourished as a playmaker, averaging what would've been a career-high 9.1 APG if stretched out over an entire year. In 26 games, Dinwiddie also put up 16.5 PPG, 4.1 RPG and 1.1 SPG in 35.3 MPG.

The first round of the 2023 playoffs saw the Nets match up with the 54-28 Philadelphia 76ers. A priority for the Nets in the series was containing MVP Joel Embiid. In the series opener, the Nets doubled Embiid almost every time he touched the ball but it opened up opportunities for his teammates.

The 76ers set a franchise record with 21 three-pointers and Philadelphia won 121-101. In Game Two, 76ers guard Tyrese Maxey had a game-high 33 points and the 76ers outscored Brooklyn 52-35 in a 96-84 victory.

Game Three was tense. Embiid was nearly ejected in the early stages of the game for kicking Nic Claxton in the groin area after the Nets center taunted him. 76ers guard James Harden was ejected late in the third quarter after picking up a flagrant foul penalty two for a forearm to Nets forward Royce O'Neale's groin area.

The 76ers had an 11-point lead in Game Three at halftime but the Nets came back and took a lead heading into the fourth. Both teams fought back and forth. Brooklyn led by five with five minutes left, but the 76ers went on a 12-4 run over four minutes and 22 seconds to gain a three-point edge with 44 seconds left.

Dinwiddie was fouled with 39 seconds left and split a pair of free-throws. After a Philadelphia miss, Dinwiddie had a chance to tie but his layup attempt was blocked by Embiid with eight seconds left. Philadelphia would hold on for a 102-97 victory.

Embiid missed Game Four with a sprained right knee. Still, Philadelphia had 15 offensive rebounds and outscored Brooklyn 56-40 in the second half as they took control and won 96-88, completing a 4-0 sweep of the Nets. Dinwiddie started all four games in the sweep, producing 16.5 PPG on 43.1% from the field, 3.3 RPG, 6.5 APG and 1.3 SPG in 39.8 MPG.

After the season, the Nets kept its roster together. The club had two first round picks back-to-back (21st and 22nd) and selected forward Noah Clowney and guard Dariq Whitehead respectively.

Brooklyn was solid to start the 2023-24 season. The team was tied for seventh in the East, with a 12-9 record after its first 21 games. However, the Nets lost 11 of the next 14 games to fall to 15-20. The losses would continue as Brooklyn fell to 20-30 at the trade deadline.

Dinwiddie was expected to share point guard responsibilities with Ben Simmons, but Simmons missed significant time due to injury. Dinwiddie was a starter but became extremely passive as a scorer during the season. In January, Dinwiddie's refusal to be aggressive came under some criticism as he went a stretch of eight out of 10 games attempting less than ten shots.

Brooklyn needed Dinwiddie to be aggressive as its overall offense struggled throughout the season. With his contract set to expire after the season, the Nets decided to move on and deal Dinwiddie at the deadline.

During the '23-'24 season, Dinwiddie appeared in 48 games with Brooklyn. The 6-5 guard put up 12.6 PPG, 3.3 RPG, 6.0 APG and 0.8 SPG in 30.7 MPG. In his second stint with Brooklyn, Dinwiddie made 74 appearances, averaging 14.0 PPG, 3.6 RPG, 7.1 APG and 0.9 SPG. He posted shooting splits of 40/31/79 in that time.

In the deal, the Nets created a $20.3 million trade exception by fitting Young into a trade exception the Nets had from sending Royce O'Neale to the Phoenix Suns on the same day and fitting Schröder into a trade exception the team created from the Kevin Durant deal in 2023. Brooklyn sending Dinwiddie to Toronto created that new exception.

Soon after the trade, the Raptors waived Dinwiddie. Releasing the guard allowed Toronto to get out of a $1.5 million bonus for games played. After flirting with both the Dallas Mavericks and Los Angeles Lakers, Dinwiddie opted for a deal for the rest of the season with the Lakers.

The Nets waived Thaddeus Young immediately after the trade as well. He later signed a deal with the Phoenix Suns for the rest of the season. As the lone player remaining from the trade, Dennis Schröder initially came off the bench in four of his first five games with the Nets. He started every game he played in the remainder of the year after. Overall, the guard appeared in 29 games (25 starts) and contributed 14.6 PPG, 3.5 RPG, 6.0 APG and 0.6 SPG in 32.0 MPG.

The Nets were 20-31 when Schröder made his debut with the club. Soon after, the Nets fired head coach Jacque Vaughn and assistant Kevin Ollie took over on an interim basis. Brooklyn went 12-19 over the final 31 games to finish out of the postseason with a 32-50 record.

In the 2024 offseason, the Nets seemed to entertain a rebuild. First, the Nets were able to re-acquire the rights to their own first round picks in 2025 and 2026 from the Houston Rockets while sending out swap rights to the Phoenix Suns' first round pick in 2025, a 2027 first round pick from the Suns to the Rockets.

Finally, Brooklyn sent Houston the rights to the more favorable of either the Dallas Mavericks or Suns' first round pick in 2029. The Rockets also acquired the right to swap their own first round pick for the less favorable of either the Mavericks’ or Suns' first round pick.

In conjunction with that convoluted deal, the Nets traded featured piece Mikal Bridges to the New York Knicks in a six-player deal that brought back five first round draft picks and a pick swap.

The combined deals was an admission that the Nets would be building for the future. The club now had control of its own draft pick in 2025, giving it a chance to lose and obtain a top pick. The Nets also hired Sacramento Kings assistant coach Jordi Fernandez as head coach.

Heading into the 2024-25 season, the Nets were expected to be one of the worst teams. There was also an expectation that the club could sell off veterans like Schröder, Cameron Johnson and Dorian Finney-Smith to accumulate draft picks and rack up losses for a higher draft pick.

Brooklyn was an early surprise team, going 9-10 in the first 19 games. Schröder was playing at an exceptional level early on. Though he was playing well, it hurt Brooklyn's chance to draft high in the lottery. After 25 games, the Nets were 10-15 and in 10th place in the East. At that point, Brooklyn dealt Schröder with a conditional 2025 second round pick to the Golden State Warriors for guard De'Anthony Melton and three future second round picks in 2026, 2028 and 2029.

Schröder was having one of his finest seasons. The 6-1 guard started all 23 games he played in and accumulated 18.4 PPG, 3.0 RPG, 6.6 APG and 1.1 SPG in 33.6 MPG on efficient shooting numbers. In 52 career games with Brooklyn, Schröder managed 16.3 PPG, 3.3 RPG, 6.3 APG and 0.8 SPG. The guard had shooting splits of 44/40/85 during that time.

Dennis Schröder on the Nets roster (via New York Post):

"Every single day, I try to get better, and we’ve got a lot of talent in this locker room. I remember when Mikal [Bridges] and Cam [Johnson], they was on the Phoenix team, and we played them in the first playoff round. Really, really talented players. Lonnie [Walker IV], we made it last year to the Western Conference Finals. He had really big games for us. "And everybody else in that locker room have great intentions of winning. And I just want to every single day give everything I have to win the day or win the game when we have one."

On the difficulty of moving to a new city from a personal perspective:

"Having a family, having three kids, a wife, it's not easy. But at the end of the day, nothing really changed. Of course, I go to a new city, new situation. But at the end of the day, we play basketball for a living and really extremely grateful for it. And can't wait to get to know everybody in the locker room, front office, everybody who is in this organization and get to work."

His take on Brooklyn as a city:

"Big city. I’m from Germany, Braunschweig, 250,000 people only, really small city, but at the end of the day, like I said, I mean, I'm a family person, always with my kids, my wife and my loved ones and of course the traffic is gonna hurt a little bit. But other than that, I mean, New York is always a big city, but it was always fun when I was here. Fans in Brooklyn was great as well. So I'm just excited, you know, take it day by day and try to get some wins."

Brooklyn Nets general manager Sean Marks on the team's priorities after making two deadline deals (via Clutch Points):

“We go into these days always thinking about future flexibility. Try to maintain some level of sustainability when we're looking at, how's the team look this year? How's it gonna look in six months time from now? How's it gonna look in three, four years? "We feel pretty good about adding the players that we added, but at the same time, you're keeping some of those draft assets as well. And again, that future flexibility.”

Toronto Raptors general manager Bobby Webster on the team's overall trade deadlines and creating flexibility with the Dennis Schröder deal (via Toronto Raptors):

"We did our heavy lifting about a month ago. So I feel like this trade deadline we cleaned up a lot of things and we addressed some of the things we talked about after the OG [Anunoby] and Pascal [Siakam] trades... "Financially we were able to you know gain some more flexibility in the summer with the Dennis trade."
