Official NJ Nets Watch

Clyburn didn't guard him the first game. They put Clyburn and JJ Obrien on him in the second and wasn't as effective 7-19. So when Billy White,Will Clyburn and JJ Obrien guarded him he was 10-32.
 
I know this thread is about the lottery and our upcoming picks, but I want to know what you guys think about Wesley Johnson from the Wolves, he hasn't had a great year, but I think he has the potential to be a stud 2/3 guard, the kid can shoot, and I think we could trade one of our picks\package some players to get him. This team desperately needs a legit 2 guard and I think getting a young guy is the best route.

Thoughts?
If we're looking to trade for a player in last years draft, why not go after Evan Turner with the 76ers?...

Their schedule isn't too bad the rest of the way, including a stretch of home games right now. Loss to Phoenix was important as they now could easily reel off 3 wins in a row. I'm hoping Detroit, Clippers and Milwaukee are far enough ahead (4 games) that NJ won't make up those games in the standings. I just don't see Toronto, Sacramento or Washington making a run.
I don't think their schedule is any picnic.
* Their next two games aren't home games, they are back-to-back with Toronto in London.
* After they return from the overseas trip, they get a 4-game homestand with GS, Clippers, Boston and Chicago.
* They close with 6 home games against 10 road games.
 
So I merged one thread about Jimmer in here, although I'm tempted to merge the others into one gigantic Ferdette thread since merging them all would bloat this one.
 
Jimmer has unlimited range, and I'm sure is already better than any 2 or backup point we have on the roster. Please tell me why that's not THE reason to draft him.

That if the Jazz have a chance to draft him, that means there are almost certainly better prospects available.

Acquiring Jimmer isn't as easy as skimming him off the top of the undrafted free agents or using a 2nd round pick (especially since the Jazz don't have one, to my knowledge). If he was, I'd be all about giving him a shot. But using a lottery pick on an unathletic combo guard with no length where we're stoked about him coming off the bench is pretty silly.
 
And I merged it into the wrong thread...sigh.

I'll do the honors:

He is definitely more of a 3, can't create his own shot, but would love to get him.
