The Team that Almost Was

I remember it clearly, it was May 2010, NBA Draft Lottery. It appeared as John Wall could be the guy that would lure a LeBron or a Wade or a Boozer or anytop Free Agent to NJ/BKLYN. Then my heart sank as the Nets were told they would recieve pick 3. Favors is OK, but not the star potential of a Wall. BUT Imagine if we landed the first pick.

 

PG. John Wall

SG. MarShon Brooks

SF. Caron Butler (who knows, maybe we dealt Harris to Dallas and re-signed Butler)

PF. Kris Humphries (lets say we finish with a similar record and land 3rd pick again, BACKUP: Enes Kanter)

C. Brook

That's a decent team but I'm not seeing "Playoffs" if there would be a season this year.

Or we have this team (if theres a season)

PG. Deron Williams

SG. Brooks (lets say he beats out Morrow)

SF. Damion James

PF. Hump (Re-signed)

C. Brook

The former probably goes like 30-52, the latter maybe 44-38 but it all depends if D-Will resigns, if he does then maybe it was a good thing we lost out on the number 1 pick.
