Lichtenstein: King’s Strategy For Nets Is Becoming More Incomprehensible

Often in sports you hear the truism that begins, “You can never have too much…”

It could be pitching in baseball or the way the 1980s Giants accumulated stud linebackers en route to winning two Super Bowl titles.

Prior to last season, Nets coach Lionel Hollins said, “You can never have too many good shooters.”

I’ve just never heard anyone at a respectable NBA franchise say, “You can never have too many point guards on your roster.”

In the latest episode of “What The Heck Is Billy King Doing?” the Nets’ general manager could very well stock his 2015-16 club with as many as five point guards, while ESPN reports that the Nets are actively shopping sharp-shooting swingman Joe Johnson.
