How do you want the Nets to build forward if they fall in the draft order? What moves would you hope to see the team make this summer?
If we fall in the lottery, trade for a young star, like a Paolo Banchero etc to fast track the rebuild.
Good lord a team with Scotty Barnes and Banchero? Wow the shooting would be terrible.
Everybody praying for top three, and rightfully so. But if the ping-pong balls start acting funny and Brooklyn slides to six or seven, it is not over. Kingston Flemings and Darius Acuff Jr. are still on the board in that range. Yeah, it would sting, but that is still a way to come out with something real.
1st Level: Franchise Star Players:
AJ , Peterson, and Caleb Wilson
2nd level-All Star Level Talents but not Franchise build your team around players:
Boozer, Fleming, Wagler, Brown Jr, Acuff, Ament.
This draft is very very good but it has a lot of very good players BUT just like every draft there are very few Franchise players. In this draft there are lucky three of them Wilson, AJ, and Peterson. These three players have the combinations you look for in a franchise player in the modern nba. Marketability: Is there game something people will come to watch. Talent Gravity: If they hit are they the type star that will attract other stars? And Two way upside: Do they have the athletic tools and upside need to impact both ends of the floor?
The reason I do not have Boozer in this group because as safe and as good as he maybe I do not see these three critical elements that make a franchise player. I don’t think his game will bring other stars, I don’t think his game will have kids buying his shoes, and I don’t see him as a dominant two way force.
We’re getting the number 1 pick
Do not take acuff. Take Wagler or Flemings
Do not trade for Gianni’s
