Brooklyn Nets will give continuity to a comprehensive reconstruction process
We analyze what can be expected from the team led by Jordi Fernández, who is confident in taking key steps towards the future.
Slowly but surely. That's how Brooklyn Nets wants to cook up its reconquest of the elite and the formation of a competitive project with long-term championship aspirations. Jordi Fernández was chosen to lead this reconstruction phase that delivered high performance last year. Perhaps too high. Tanking in this new season seems to be the only viable option.
The Brooklyn Nets competed much better than anticipated, yet they have neither wanted nor been able to use that to boost the project and expedite the development of a competitive team. Many expected them to keep their top players and pursue the signing of a major star like Antetokounmpo, but they have taken a different path. They have parted ways with their key players, and although the talent acquired through the Draft may not raise much excitement, they have paved the way to have salary cap flexibility in upcoming seasons.
Michael Porter Jr will have the freedom to increase his value in the market, along with Terrence Mann and Cam Thomas. They will be tasked with gaining more minutes and prominence, seen as pieces that can be used in future trade negotiations. It is expected that Jordi Fernández will give playing time to rookie players like Demin, Traoré, and Saraf, in order to test if they have what it takes to succeed in the NBA.
