Prokorov wrote:I dont think we need a stretch 4.... you dont need 4 shooters for great space. thats a myth.... you do need 3 shooters on the floor... it helps if ones a big but if you have 3 your golden. especially if one can shoot off screens/quick release/the dribble like russell can.

If Lin/Russ/Levert can all be 35% or better thats all the space we need especially in the motion offense.

Also, we have floor spacing bigs off the bench. Acy, Hamilton. we can always put in them if things halt a bit.

also... when you have finshing bigs like allen, its tough for teams to clog the paint... if you leave a tyson chandler/deandre jordan type you risk easy dunks. need to stay glued to 65+ FG% guys who dunk everything.

i see no issue with RHJ/Allen as long as levert can improve a bit from three

RHJ moves too well off the ball to leave ungaurded on the outside.


great points.

it will also help if RHJ adds a mid range and begins to at least creep into the 30% range from downtown. he needs to add more than just the driving attack. he needs to pull up.

I don't trade any of the young boys though. i still think we need to add a stretch 4 unless you have faith in acy. i like acy a lot. great guy, hard worker, knock down hitter from deep.

I'm excited about this team. 30 wins bare minimum and that's before free agency pick ups. lots of young talent and a culture that will breed competitive play.

Of course but I'd be shocked if we falls to the 50s.

I think we should trade up for Semi. just my feeling, but if the Nets feel like passing on that, i will trust their assessment.

With Allen, assuming he's more capable of running to the rim, maybe there'll be some tweaks in the offense to utilize that simple PnR

Yeah, aren't we over the roster limit after getting Russell and Mozgov?

I would assume so. Atkinson has shown flexibility with adapting his system.

Any intel on Semi Ojeleye? On paper he seems like a solid pick at this stage of the draft. Looks like a forward that can play both positions and hit the three. Anything wrong with him?
