In a podcast Friday of the NBA off-season, Danny Leroux of RealGM and Kevin Pelton think the Nets have jumped “into the fringe” of playoff contention after a “volume” off-season.
What’s a “volume” off-season? Leroux explained it this way:
“Brooklyn made a series of interesting decisions this summer by adding volume over a single individual or two that could really help them,” said Leroux. “And that volume, to me, makes them a lot more resilient in terms of injuries, and the big question for them is also going to be who plays?”
Pelton agrees, saying the off-season has boosted the Nets bench and that is a big reason why they are now part of the “fringe” group that could battle for a spot in the post-season.
