शैडोइंग अभ्यास: I Don't Have Much Hope For My Nets - वीडियो के साथ अंग्रेजी बोलना सीखें

Next up on the season preview list is my very own Brooklyn Nets.

Last year, they finished 20 -62, the worst offense in the entire league, 30th in offensive rating, which is impressive,

considering the fact that Michael Porter Jr. was better and healthier than expected and was a borderline all -star, 26th on defense, and 13th in the Eastern Conference,

which, of course, was on purpose.

This was a team that was trying to lose.

They wanted to have one of the worst records in the league.

They succeeded.

They got high lottery odds and, unfortunately, once again, slipped down.

I like Mikel Brown, but it's definitely tough

when you look at the last couple of years for the Nets where the goal when they traded away Mikel Bridges, made that Houston trade, was get their picks back for the last two years and then move forward.

And they got the eighth pick and the sixth pick despite pretty good lottery odds in each of those years.

Now, I like both those players, but still, clearly their plan was let's be bad for two years and then turn it around.

And I don't think this roster is as good as they were hoping

that it would be at the end of those two years.

But regardless, let's talk about their offseason and end of the season.

They added Julius Randle, Michael Brown, Keon Ellis, and Mo Wagner in the offseason, and then they lost Nick Claxton.

So some upgrades, certainly, obviously, the youth of Michael Brown.

We'll talk a lot about him alongside of Yeager in the backcourt.

Julius Randle is, you know, say what you want about Julius Randle, certainly as a postseason player, but he's been a floor -raising kind of guy.

Each of the last two teams that he's gone to, the Knicks were not that good, and when he went there, they certainly improved while he was there, and then same thing in Minnesota, just continuing to raise the floor.

I'll be honest, I'm not particularly excited to watch Julius Randle play basketball this year, but maybe I'll be pleasantly surprised.

Maybe he'll lean a little bit more into the playmaking

that I think has always been something he should have been leaning more into as an NBA player.

But still, an interesting offseason for the Nets.

Maybe you were expecting something more exciting given that they had so much cap space, but Keon Ellis, Moe Wagner, being able to maneuver around, get some extra assets by taking on Julius Randle is what it is for their offseason.

Really quickly, though, I want to thank the sponsor of today's video, Courtyard.

And I also want to thank them for this giveaway way.

You can see this card on screen, 1998 PSA 8 Michael Jordan card.

I am going to give that away to a random commenter on this video.

And again, that is just a random comment that comments their Courtyard username underneath this video.

I'll be getting that 1998 PSA 8 Michael Jordan card.

Now let me tell you more about Courtyard.

So go check out Courtyard, and thank you again at Courtyard for sponsoring this video.

Let's talk about the starters.

Now, to me, this is pretty much locked in.

Not necessarily for night one, because I don't know that Michael Brown is going to be healthy for night one, but the ideal during the season starting lineup for the Nets would be Michael Brown, Yegor Jemen, Michael Porter Jr.,

Julius Randle, and De 'Ron Sharp, who came back on a cheap deal, but I actually think is pretty good but obviously no more Nick Claxton.

They have a couple of other bigs as well that they're going to have off the bench, including Moe Wagner, who I talked about earlier.

And it's an interesting group because, you know, Sharp is kind of, people don't really care too much about him at the five spot.

Then you got the two young guys in the backcourt in Brown and Jemen, and then you have MPJ and Julius Randle on the wing slash four spot

as the kind of veteran core of the group.

And I think there are ways in which this can really work.

Certainly if there's a leap from Yegor, obviously Michael Porter Jr., if healthy, was really good last year him

and Randle together in the backcourt slash on the wing is just a really difficult size matchup for teams to deal with.

I mean, MPJ is like a legit 6 '10".

Julius Randle is big and strong.

So I think there are certainly nights where they're going to be able to take advantage of their size in that way.

Yegor's big.

Michael Brown's big.

So it's a bigger starting group.

And I think that'll be one of the ways they try

and grind out some wins is try and get on the offensive glass, be a relatively strong defensive team, get out and transition.

There's obviously concern with that when you're dealing with two young guys in the backcourt.

But I think that's at least kind of the goal is

for one of the strengths of the team to just be overall size.

And then, you know, De 'Ron Sharp has a pretty good offensive rebounder as well.

Off the bench, things get more concerning, in my opinion.

Ben Saroff, Nolan Traore, obviously two of the young guys they've drafted in recent years.

Keon Ellis, Drake Powell, another young guy.

Noah Clowney, who I thought was pretty good last year.

And, you know, depending on how concerned or not concerned you are about rebounding, like maybe could start over De 'Ron Sharp, although I don't think he's a natural five.

And then Mo Wagner, who they also added in the offseason.

So some decent depth, some decent vets.

Overall, though, just not that impressive of a roster, depending on how much Julius Randle really raises the floor of this team.

There's a lot of concerns here defensively, as much as they want to try and be better this year because they don't have their pick.

There's still a ton of youth throughout this roster, and that obviously, especially in the backcourt, could lead to some not great play.

And if you really look at their guard rotation, I mean, it's Brown, Jemmins, Seraf Traore, either year one or year two guys, two of which, and Seraf Traore were not very good as rookies.

And then Keon Ellis, who's like a solid NBA player, but on actual good basketball teams, was playing like 12 minutes a game.

So injury here or there in the guard rotation gets pretty small pretty quickly in Brooklyn, not to mention i'm not super excited about the wings maybe drake powell will come along a little bit

but i think i wanted to be really excited about the team

because i like the backcourt we'll talk about that in a second

but it's more of an experiment than it is a really good basketball team to me

and i just i have a lot of concerns up

and down their roster let's talk about uh big storylines for their season i've mentioned this already for them

but they do not have their draft pick this year they owe it to houston

so i think in a in a normal year they would try

and be in that four to ten spot

which is you know the non -relegation zone right where you'd want to be in the draft

but they don't have their pick it doesn't seem to be a super strong draft anyway

but this is a scenario where they certainly I mean they

could give away the number one pick in the draft that's

a realistic scenario typically over the years the Nets have good lottery luck

when they don't own their own pick so you know

if they are as I expect them to be one of

the five to eight worst teams in a league look out for where

that Houston pick ends up for for the Nets

100

and that's just I've done this before with this team already

101

but it's just it's a tough place to be in

102

when you know you need to get better you know the team's not

103

that good then you're giving away high picks

104

and not even getting anything out of what will probably be a pretty down season for them.

105

Next up, big storyline here, and I think is the number one thing to come away from this season with, and that is this backcourt.

106

If the Nets win 20 games again, but you come out of this season thinking, okay, Jordy's like a pretty good coach, maybe had some injury issues, da -da -da -da, and you have Michael Brown and Yegor as like,

107

these are our guys for the future, to me, that's a successful season because then I have something to build from.

108

If that's not the case, if Brown is hurt, plays like 30 games, and Yegor like takes a leap, but not that big of one.

109

I don't really know where you're going.

110

I don't know really what the foundation is other than, you know, MPJ is a decent trade asset and Julius Randle.

111

Like, I don't know where the team is going from there.

112

And I'm hopeful.

113

My optimism for the team is Brown's ability to be an on and off ball guy because of his spacing.

114

Yegor's continued improvement on the ball, getting to the rim.

115

And then how he didn't necessarily shoot it great last year, but he shot way more than I thought that he would

116

and clearly was like a point of emphasis for him in terms of improvement

117

and those guys being kind of bigger and being you know both on

118

and off ball guys I think there's something there

119

that could be really exciting in a year or two years

120

and that's all I want to see every single time I

121

turn on a Nets game is both those guys healthy

122

and then playing together as much as possible to me unless

123

for some reason this is going to be a play -in team

124

and a very tough Easter conference

125

which I doubt the number one goal the season should be Brown

126

and Jemen should be playing together as many minutes as possible

127

don't stagger them at all always have them together on the floor at the same time

128

because that to me is one of the only things

129

that matters out of this season from an evaluation perspective offensively

130

I think there's a lot to like on defense there's obvious

131

concern Brown was not a great defensive player in college Jim

132

and I think can be a really good NBA defender

133

and they each have that size

134

but I don't I don't want this to be a situation

135

where it's like oh yeah well Yeager's gonna be the guy that guards

136

and Brown doesn't I need both of them ideally to be at a guard in this version of the NBA so

137

that's certainly something to keep an eye on the Jordy Fernandez

138

factors another thing I put down here is a big storyline

139

because I think amongst coaches whose record isn't

140

that good in the first couple years I think Jordy has like a decently high reputation

141

because there are there were points not necessarily last year

142

but the year before where they kind of had to start losing some games on purpose

143

because he was getting a lot out of the team

144

and they were playing fast in transition it's a little bit

145

like um the Jazz's coach Hardy where it's like okay we know the team isn't

146

that good but you're doing stuff here

147

that we like I hope that's still the case by the end of this year

148

because although i don't think they're going to be very good

149

i think the internal expectation level is higher certainly than it was last year

150

or the year before so

151

if they're not good i get a little bit worried about his future

152

but i think ultimately he's a good coach

153

and there's just going to be a lot of ways in

154

which that will shine through even

155

if the team record does not necessarily show hey this is a guy you should build around long term

156

and then another thing i want to mention here as well is the michael porter jr julius randall fit

157

and importantly that is a fit

158

that they're not committed to michael porter jr as of this

159

recording still does not have a new extension with the team he is a 2027 free agent

160

and someone that regardless of how their season goes is going to be in trade rumors especially

161

if you feel like that's not a good fit between those two guys

162

and you just want to go ahead and move on from mpj

163

and play one of the younger guys you don't have your pick anyway maybe get a pick

164

or two out of mpj and even

165

if he does stay on the team although the size is like interesting

166

and intriguing i think mpj is more natural at the four

167

spot julius randall obviously more natural at the four spot

168

so is there enough ball handling is there enough creation here mpj had a really great season last year

169

so i'm certainly not doubting his ability to have another one

170

but early season as i'm like trying to talk myself into

171

the team seeing how those two guys play together is going

172

to be one of the number one things i'm going to be watching

173

and paying attention to now in terms of prediction

174

um i wish i could be optimistic it's my team i want to be excited

175

when i looked at this roster and especially like

176

if brown's not going to be healthy at the beginning of the year

177

i think this i don't know if they'll finish this way

178

but i think this is the worst roster in the conference

179

but truly they're i have them at 15th in the east i i do not want

180

that to be the case but unfortunately someone's got to be 15th

181

and i think

182

that there's just not enough here some of the vets are okay julius randall will help

183

but if like if brown plays 20 games or 30 games

184

because of a back issue

185

or an ankle issue they're definitely bringing him along slowly i

186

just don't know where you're getting any kind of backcourt creation

187

from i don't really like any of the other guards other than yegor

188

and maybe keon ellis

189

so uh i i unfortunately do not think they're going to be very good i hope i'm wrong

190

but that's where i'm at with the nets right now
