Official 2019 Brooklyn Nets Offseason Thread

[Rockice_24]

Harris is starting without question. Anyone not putting him in the starting 5 is doing it wrong. The 4 and 5 are the only question marks and I assume unless Allen just looks awful he'll be the starting 5 with Prince at the 4 until Rodi takes it back if he even can (assuming he's cleared).

2019 offseason has been a historic one for this franchise.

Far exceeded expectations.

To me it was matter of time before top players would come over. It's just to big of a opportunity to miss out on. Infrastructure is great and I don't mean to down play it, but this is young millioners we talking about who care about their brand and fun life. I might be jumping on some bold conclusion here but I can see BK being top destination from now on. I mean look a J.Buss, Reinsdorf, Dolan for example tell me they're not ruining their brand on a biggest markets in US. Tsai seeing it and as a creator/developer knows it's true value. I think we just getting started here, I truly started to believe in it after D12 trade request

It was good to see the playoff entry. Now bust past the first round and don't look back.

Of course, try to tell yourself the season starts on the 25th against the Knicks. As you'll want to be looking the other way on the 23rd when the fun new 'KAT family culture cult' Wolves come to Barclays. It will either be the most friendly loss to start the season or not, but either way your young players will be in danger of being swept up into the cult and stolen out from under you.

Ok man. You guys got KAT, he can play and he's from here. Sorry but we going spank your team real quick couple times this year. Y'all ain't ready for us yet, come over in .... 5 years or so. That's if KAT with your team. Next time around he might do Kyrie and play in Nets uni.

As a gambler I always do deep researches on teams before the season. Brooklyn is one of the deepest team with huge upside in entire league. Best of all, it has talent that compliments each other. It's very important and showed last year when we made playoffs. Brooklyn had one of the most fun teams unlike Bostan due to perfect mesh of talent ( huge props to Markinson ).
Line up #1-
Kyrie
Caris
Prince
Rodi
Allen
This line up is perfect in my opinion to start the season and see what Kyrie and LeVert can provide as playmakers. Rodi and Allen both know how to cut and set screens, they also good defenders. Beside Kyrie here these group of guys pretty good defenders and really nice when it come to anticipation, one on one defense and playing passing lanes for steals. The one glaring weaknesses that I see here is spacing due to fact Rodi and Allen being mediocre shooters.
Dinwiddy-> first of the bench
Joe-> Din will need spacing and with lesser competition Joe can provide a lot more. Also I'd like him on limited minutes at the beginning of the season, he had busy summer (load management please ).
Nwaba -> was very exited when Marks got him, he's a pitbull that can go off when he feeling it.
Temple-> not a big fan of him. Last year he's been trash imo and barely got of the bench for good reasons. I'd love to see what Chandler can provide.
DJ-> I think it's best to keep him fresh until after AllStar break, he's a vet who knows that his value will be most important during post season.
Claxton-> there will be trash teams along the way when we could DNP-CD DJ and test drive our new guy. Very optimistic about this kid and think he'll surprise us all.
Musa-> maybe I'm still salty about summer league but I want to see more.
Pinson-> with Kyrie's load management he'll get time to show what he got for this year.
Looking at the schedule I can see this team winning 48 maybe 57 games depending on circumstances. I mean we won 42 games last year with corpses of Dudley, Carroll and half season LeVert.

I think based on what Kenny was saying Prince might get the nod at the 4.

It really doesn't matter who starts or finishes tbh. We are deep as hell at every position.

MDB we've been watching games for a while now. I'm not going to argue the fact that Kenny will start Joe, I knew it right out. I'm just puttimg up my opinion here and wanted to find out what others think. Markinson made me look stupid several times and I'm at the point ... I'm a believer. As a fantasy league gambler I was thinking it's a best line up to begin the season and go from there. I have no doubt we will win 50 games and I got my money on it. We can see the talent and most importantly coaching to go along with it. Usually it means great success especially if you got continuity to go along. Man I'm never been so exited as a fan, I'm like a kid walking around talking smack. Let's just enjoy our ride we deserve it.
3pt chucker and Big Tom we had our differences back in a days. My bad!!! Let's start from new.

[GTR11]

Harris is starting without question. Anyone not putting him in the starting 5 is doing it wrong. The 4 and 5 are the only question marks and I assume unless Allen just looks awful he'll be the starting 5 with Prince at the 4 until Rodi takes it back if he even can (assuming he's cleared).

The vibe that I get from info is that it's healthy competition. These guys know they here for a long ride. Most importantly they all say Kenny is the man and open to them. I love it. That's how you build trust and respect, no ego sh**. It can get any better than this.
Remember how we were worried about D.Will and others just to please them?

KD is a Net now. New era new everything. He's on a record ... Y'all know. This man will be on a mission. Good luck.

Kenny talks to the players. That is why guys will run through a wall for him. He talks to them and communicates. That stuff is huge with millennial players.

So, D’angelo’s run as a Net was a “low” in his career according to Scottie Pippen lol

Wondering where DC will trade Beal. They sub 20 win team just like Knix, Bobcats and Grizz. Maybe Miami will make a some type of offer.

[Claud]

I think we're going to go with Kyrie/Harris/LeVert/Kurucs/Allen as starters and Dinwiddie/Nwaba/Temple/Prince/DJ off the bench with some Musa/Clax sprinkles here and there. Injuries happen so fully expect either Musa or Clax to crack the rotation at some point.

[TheNetsFan]

Starters: Kyrie-LeVert-Harris-Prince-Allen/Jordan (depending on matchup)
6) Dinwiddie
7) Allen/Jordan
8) Kurucs
9) Temple
10) Musa

Musa won't play he is still not ready. Nwaba will be the 10th guy

[Dzon Dilindzer]

Musa won't play he is still not ready. Nwaba will be the 10th guy

why do you think hes not ready (hes not yours cup of tea, based on your comments)

im not saying hes ready and i do agree with you that nwaba will be in front of him, just like kurucs, temple and chandler, but injury here and there, load management etc and he will get his chance and if he impress (like kurucs for example), he can take the spot in the rotation from older guys like temple, chandler or nwaba who is young, but not as talented as musa

watching the game against that non-nba team, he looked good and improved to me and im saying this as someone who followed musa for years... he looks bigger, which is good and i saw him shooting the ball, meaning he was not afraid to shoot, he was driving to the basket and getting to the free throw line, he was making plays (hes not point guard, but as secondary playmaker hes just fine) and he fits perfectly in kenny atkinsons system

although non-nba team, they were still black players (meaning black people are more gifted athletically than white people) and he did solid... he will get more bigger and stronger, which will help him in the future... kenny atkinson said hes really pleased with musa improvement and i believe him and i saw it in the actual game

hopefully hell get minutes against nba teams this preseason, just so we get a better picture

i always thought gordon hayward is perfect comparison physically for dzanan musa

musa as a rookie

it's cuz he lacks the speed of the NBA. He doesn't have a clue on what to do once he sets foot close to the paint. He tends to decide on weak finishes that's lacks high percentage opportunities as well as high impact. For example for some reason once he gets into the paint he tends to do a tear drop which is not a good move for a 6'9 wing player where he should have the ability to get closer to the rim so he can get a higher percentage shot and/or get a chance for contact for a foul. Until he solves this issue he won't ever play regularly.

musa will likely spend time with long island again. Pinson is the guy cracking into the 10 or 11 man rotation, not musa.

starters: Kyrie - harris - levert - prince - allen
bench: Dinwiddie - Pinson - Nwamba - Temple - Jordan
next man up: Claxton

I think Musa will be higher than Pinson. I think Nwaba and Temple will be ahead of them both.
