I predicted the Brooklyn Nets would be the NBA’s worst team in my pre-season forecast, and spent probably the least amount of time on their prospects. I have an unofficial list of what I call “marker players”, meaning people whose presence on an NBA roster indicates that team’s severe weakness. Brooklyn has more markers than anyone else. Luis Scola will be 37 soon. Randy Foye has 10 years in the league, and the Nets are his seventh team. Jeremy Lin is on his sixth team in as many years. He’s hurt anyway, so the Raptors will have to contend with point guard Spencer Dinwiddie, who’s yet to be mistaken for Kyrie Irving.
