Should the Nets take a shot at these failed lottery picks? 

Post#1 » by Karate Diop » Mon Jun 5, 2017 5:13 pm

The players listed below were all part of the 2013 NBA Draft. Carter-Williams is is 25 years old while the other 3 players are all 24 years old. Every player is a restricted free agent.

Despite the fact that all of these players have largely floundered in the league, would you consider signing any of them to the Nets?
Do any of these players have untapped potential? Or are they largely finished products destined to be bit players in the league?

I agree to no on all of them... i wouldnt go as far as calling them all trash but i dont think they are worth 8 or 12+M and a roster spot. Shabazz has some potential but i wouldnt give him the money/roster spot and i dont like the fit. we have enough project/reclamaition type PGs to add burke or carter williams and im of the opinion be mclemore is one of the worst players in the league.

hard pass on everyone unless shabazz wants to take a near minimum deal which im positive he wouldnt

The only one I would consider is Shabazz Muhammad. The rest are trash.

Maybe Trey Burke and shabazz Muhammad but that's really it
Mcclemore sucks and mcw has had more than enough chance to show what he is

One of the funniest things to do is go back and watch Draft night coverage of them when they were drafted. Jay Bilas and others are talking up every player and how they're going to be major contributors in the league.

I wonder if he's really being honest or if he has to stay positive for everyone because he's on tv.

Trey Burke or MCW are the only ones I'd even think about.

Before Din really solidified his spot as backup (which I think he did) I was thinking maybe MCW. But no need anymore.

Maybe Trey Burke.
