So why are the Nets facing a dilemma? It seems that more than any franchise, they have the most riding on their first-round pick.<\/p>\n
Take a look at all 30 rosters. Purely based on stats and talent, Brooklyn lacks it the most. The rotation has young pieces to develop, but there’s a reason this team finished dead last in offensive rating: the Nets need better players, don’t overthink it.<\/p>\n
The overarching challenge of the offseason will be to figure out how to maximize the current core while adding talent. Within that is the draft, and recent reports have caused for concern among fans.<\/p>\n
Brooklyn is heavily linked to Tennessee forward Nate Ament<\/a> at No. 6, according to recent reports. For most, this is considered a heavy reach, and a whiff at this selection could set the franchise back years.<\/p>\n At the very least, if the Nets strike out on improving the roster in free agency or the trade market, they can build around their lottery selection. But that only puts more pressure on Marks in an offseason<\/a> that could be his last if things don’t change.<\/p>\n
