Hopefully the Demin-era is better for Brooklyn than the last time they had a Russian in that building.

Egor flatout will make the shooters on Nets better. He's a great floor general and he can see over ANYONE guarding him. Cam Thomas about to eat!

Impossible to succeed with a name like Egor Demin. Seems like a good kid. And also a bust. Can't shoot, can't defend... nah son.

Egor Demin..

And I was saying he’s going to drop. Forgot we still have dumbass GMs in the league.

I’m fine with him, his halfcourt rim frequency is high, and at one point early in the NCAA season, when he was on a tear, I even had him top 2. It really all comes down to how much you buy into his shooting. I think he made a real effort to sell himself as a shooter during private workouts. Kasparas would have been the safer pick, but I guess Nets want to take a big swing for upside.

Look how important athletic wing defenders were this playoffs. The finals teams were riddled with them and VJ should be superior to all of them. We need a dude who can take on the elite guards in the playoffs and let Maxey and Mccain cook. Its a good fit.

Gotta be Essengue here.

One of the skinnier draftees I can remember.

It would be nice if anyone in the Sixers backcourt had size.

With VJ, Maxey, McCain... do they even resign Grimes? All midget backcourt! Ask CLE how that works!

Also none of them are PG's.

Don’t fool us ESPN. Where are all the trades?!

Toronto taking Maluach would be so cliche.

TOR will probably be Essengue, but possibly Maluach.

Only McCain is a midget. And teams usually runs combo guard at the 1 position.
