Imagining where the Brooklyn Nets could be in 2021-22

Piloted by elite coach Kenny Atkinson the Nets have made themselves a viable Eastern conference playoff threat. Moreover with lead guard D’Angelo Russell the Nets become one of the most interesting teams in the league.

Rondae Hollis-Jefferson and Caris LeVert form a terrifying two-way tandem on the wings. Jarrett Allen anchors the team on the less glamorous end, and is effective on the other side.

Brooklyn has modest cap room, lucking out by signing their starting five for now-below market deals and letting go of expensive players like DeMarre Carroll and Timofey Mozgov.
