Thread: Nets roster: Not as bad as some say or predict...

agreed, i'm not sure if the nets will ever be more popular than the knicks. but here's the thing... if a FA isn't purely worried about popularity he'll see that we have: - the richest owner in pro sports - the most modern facility in the game (given a year or two) - one of the top two markets in US sports - more cap room than any other team - more draft picks than any other team over the next several years, including the...

A lot of NBA writers acknowledge the fact that the Nets aren't the worst team in the league. They commend Frank for the work he's done with what he's been given. They've been playing with half of a roster. I believe that if they had been even remotely healthy, they'd have 4-5 wins right now.

Well I was thinking that if we were to get a stud-like swing like a LeBron, Wade, or Joe Johnson we could plug CDR as a 6th man as a scoring punch.

Either of those guys who be fantastic on our team. They are definately not coming (Lebron, Johnson, Wade). They would choose the knicks over the nets...A'mare and Bosh maybe. But how about trying to pick up a guy like RUDY GAY who will also be a FA next...

Well we will be getting a superstar, an allstar and John Wall next year, the future is gonna be bright.

Its just like last year when they predicted we would be the NBA's worst. What happened? We almost made the playoffs. Those so called "experts" just dont learn. IMO, were better then the Bucks, Kings, and Knicks. Were probably not making to much noise but I think we'll impress some people.

The bucks look pretty terrible, the Knicks...

If this team is able to get a good prospect in next year's draft (assuming they get a lottery pick) and get a big free agent acquisition (Lebron? Wade?) this team could be scary good in the future with all the great young players already in place like Harris, Lopez, T Williams, and Courtney Lee who I think would be better as a 6th man.

All I know is that Brook Lopez and Devin Harris are studs. Add one more very good young star to this team and then a good 6th man and they are good to go.

I was just looking at this Nets roster and really think it is not as bad as so many people are saying. Some say the Nets will be the worst team in the league. I say no way. I think the Nets can make a little noise and build a foundation for years to come.
