Thankfully, there are a good few options for the Nets to take. It may not have worked before, but now the Nets may know how to properly assess the risk of going after a star, and could very well make another attempt. My assessment: High risk, with potential for high reward down the line The problem with this strategy is that it very possibly leaves the Nets at the bottom of the barrel of the league for a few years, and as we all know, there is nothing worse than attempting a rebuild and failing. Alongside whichever pick of #21 or #22 they are able to keep (assuming they have to give one to the Blazers). Alongside that, Mikal Bridges could easily become one of the hottest commodities on the trade market if the Nets make him available, alongside Nic Claxton and Cam Johnson (which would be complicated by his free agency), for whom partners certainly could be found.Ī trade with the Trail Blazers for the #3 pick, centered around Bridges, could give the Nets an easy jumping off point for a rebuild, no matter if they get Scoot Henderson or Brandon Miller with that pick. It’s rare for a team to have such a meteoric rise to the top only to fail so miserably, but now the Nets have been given an opportunity to piece together the scraps and begin a true rebuild, especially now with their wealth of picks from the Harden, Irving, and Durant trades. Yeah, Kevin Durant, Kyrie Irving, and James Harden was meant to be a killer trio on paper, but for whatever reasons it didn’t work out, that’s alright, now you have an opportunity to take some time and fix things. Hey, sometimes things don’t go as planned. The Nets are, in my opinion, one of the most interesting situations in the NBA, coming down from the failure of the super team era and their second first round sweep in as many years, the future of this team is uncertain, and I want to look at a few scenarios in regards to the future of the Nets.
