There’s a lot of speculation out there about what the Nets are planning this off-season ... tanking for the 2019 pick? Going for broke with big free agent? Tendering another offer sheet for a restricted free agent? Or banking on continuity?
Here’s our take from reading between the lines of comments made by Sean Marks, Kenny Atkinson and even some of the players over the last ten days since the season ended...
The Nets are looking to become competitive this season with the hope of making a splash next summer when they will have 1) their own first rounder (as well as the Knicks’ second); 2) maybe $30 to 35 million in cap space with the expiration of some big contracts and 3) a chance to sign their top talent to a long-term deal.
