As we wrote in the piece asking the question, it was a very tough year for Nets fans. A ton of losses and a Knicks championship. Not the best. However, the Draft and more specifically, the combination between the California Classic and Las Vegas Summer League have seemingly given this fanbase a sigh of relief.
They found two players who look likes stars in Mikel Brown Jr. and Egor Dëmin. Other players like Chaney Johnson also made a name for themselves. So, after a difficult year, did Summer League
change any sort of outlook for the fans? YES!
Patience or Promise?
- [Comment]: “My answer was no for a simple reason: I expect the team to start developing into something real now, seeing MBJ work fluidly with Demin so far is exactly what I was expecting (call me glass half full idc).”
- [Comment]: “Yes. Simply for the reason that MBJ is legit. He’s a good one. Finally.”
- [Comment]: “Summer league tends to only show you who does not belong so looking at our roster Demin, MBJ, Wolf and Cheney seem to belong mix them with MPJ, Randle, Sharpe, Wagner, Ellis, Noah, and Mann and that would be the 10 man rotation I can see.”
Shifting to Jordi
- [Comment]: “I’m not a Jordi fan and have no faith in his rotations and load management for players who aren’t injured.”
- [Reply]: “Strong opinion, considering he’s been handicap by two tanking seasons. I’ll judge him by what he did when he had talent with the Canadian national team. New heights for them.”
- [Reply]: “Fernandez led Canada to the best international result the men’s program has had in the modern era, a run to the bronze medal at the 2023 FIBA World Cup, while simultaneously qualifying for the 2024 Olympics.”
