Where do you expect the Nets to finish in the East in 2015-16?

[jbeachboy]

Plumlee was ineffective towards the tail end of the season. I liked Mason but he seemed to lose it once he lost his starting spot.

mason at his worse is still less of a negative then bargani.

Anderson will be missed for his leadership and 3+D play. We are hoping Ellington can replace that at least on the 3+D part.

We got into the playoffs because Lopez, Bojan, and Jack/Anderson played their asses off. D-Will had all but quit.

Yeah, D-Will is better than anyone we have at PG but that didn't mean that he was out there killing it and carrying this squad. So again, losing him is a 13 win difference? i call bull ****. I think if this team competes and plays hard that's half the battle right there. Its all about getting Lopez the rock, guys hitting shots, and Bojan stepping up.

he wasnt carrying us, but you are ignoring how much it hurts an offense to remove a 3 point shooter from the lineup, especially when its a gaurd. we ALREADY had poor shooting and already had poor spacing. that gets even worse when you remove a shooter. teams can pack it in even more. which means less space for lopez on those rolls to the rim, and less driving lanes for the few guys we have who can get to the hoop.

we are one of the easiest teams in the league to gaurd. we have 1 great offensive player, and you can double him without worrying about getting burnt because he is slow to move the ball out of double teams and if he does we dont have the shooters to make them pay.

Deron Williams was one of the worst starting PGs in the league last season. The most we'll miss is his 3 point shot and his willingness to pass (because he couldn't get past anyone and frankly he settled half the time). Larkin will pass the rock, whether he can hit shots is another story. I go with either Larkin or Sloan and let Jack come in for offense. This nonsense about this team being 13-20 games worse because D-Will is gone reeks of revisionist horse ****.

key word is starting pgs. we went from one of the worst starters as a starter to one of the worst backups now starting.

nets will have shooters, it depends if lopez can pass the ball out of double teams, bogs and ellington can shoot, joe johnson, larkin and jack can shoot the j

larkin and jack can not shoot. they are poor 3 point shooters. only 2 of bogs/ellington/joe will ever be on the floor at the same time. our shooting was a major issue last year, and that was with 3point shooting at the PG spot.

our offense looks like it will probably be among the leagues worst.

I'm prepared for some rocky moments here as they figure things out but as long as these guys fight hard I think, barring any catostrophic injury to Lopez, they can get close to last year's win total at the least

Deron was arguably our second best player down the stretch and was a big reason we made the playoffs. He and Brook had our PnR humming at the end of the year. I don't think he's makes a 13 win difference but to say we would have made the playoffs with out him last year I think is wrong.

After the trade for Thadeus the team played better they made a playoff push because he and Brook played good together.

I love when mods from other boards come here to troll. Its bad enough when pricks from your forum come over here to troll but a mod? wow, RealGM is slipping when it comes to their vetting process.

It sure is.

Boston has all of these 1st round picks yet couldnt even get Frank Kaminsky for them.

The Celtics have a thread predicting the doom and gloom of other teams owing them picks like the Nets and the Mavs. That's why I found it hilarious that a Celtic fan came here to open a topic...

Their roster is deep, but filled with average guys, so the most exciting thing they have going is to predict how bad the Nets(and Mavs for that matter) will be, with the illusion that this time around they can draft someone who can be a difference maker.

[jbeachboy]

should we engage in conversation with"trolls" or just delete or ignore their statements? celtics fans think theyre getting tim duncan in the next draft i guess

[jbeachboy]

the celtics were willing to give up four first round picks and two second round picks for frank kaminsky or justise winslow!

Just pointing out that Celtics fans are hoping for better than 8th-14th. Heck we're pretty much depending on it since we settled for mediocrity last year. Didn't say that it was a reasonable hope. In fact it's sort of a desperate hope - as you guys have pointed out our own picks weren't worth enough to move up a measly 7 spots in the draft.

If your Nets manage to crush our hopes by staying competitive these next 3 years, there's a decent chance Boston will be stuck in the treadmill. Obviously us Celtics fans have a rooting interest in the Nets that goes way beyond cheap trolling.

The top of the draft looks pretty good and the Celtics don't have any existing studs to make positional fit a concern. Bender, Brown, Ingram and Skal(abrine) are the consensus top 5 (Bender, Ingram and Simmons seem most popular on our board). There's a pretty steep drop off in appeal after that. The 2015 draft was all about the top 10. I think this one's all about the top 5. Hence the desperation.

And still won't make a difference. How's that Young and Smart backcourt working out? You shouldn't be trolling when Boston can't even find any elite talent. Goodbye now.

You're throwing it on our faces dude, get real. If you want to wank off over the thoughts of our pick this year go back to your own forum and do it where people will be receptive to it.

It's bad enough that a Celtics fan started this thread.

When a Celtics mod posts in this thread with a Billy King avatar, Billy King signature with a website fully dedicated to tracking the blunders Billy King has made, and then a location of "Treasure hunting in the Brooklyn sewers", how could any Nets fan take this seriously?

i want sixers to win the lottery cause their team is really bad and needs help but if not them then one of those lousy western conference teams like wolves, kings, nuggets, jazz
