Here are some questions
Steven (NJ): Who on the Nets will have a breakout year next year?
SportsNation Lawrence Frank: If I knew that, I would also be predicting the stock market. I think you have a better feel for it in training camp. All of our guys are working to improve their games. But, Steven, your guess is as good as mine, because we won't be able to tell until we come together at the beginning of the season.
Steven (NJ): What position should the Nets take in the draft?
SportsNation Lawrence Frank: Our approach is drafting the best possible player, regardless of position. [Nets president] Rod [Thorn] and our scouting field are confident in that position. So regardless of position, we'll take the best possible player.
jordan: what players in this year's draft have surprised you with their abilities?
SportsNation Lawrence Frank: I think it was interesting that people said that this draft may not be as strong as previous ones. Last year's was extremely strong, but after reviewing the players, there are several good ones. And I think you'll see some trading so teams can get extra picks. It's not really my expertise, but our scouts and GM think there's going to be some depth and some great players late. Last year, we were lucky enough to get Brook Lopez at 10. If they knew what we know now, that probably wouldn't have happened. There's always someone who drops.
I need Netsforce to set the record straight on this !
