The Nets had their biggest one day workout Tuesday with 12 prospects, mostly wing players, showing off, six in the morning, six in the afternoon. A number of them are rumored to be Nets' favorites, shooters Jon Diebler and David Lighty of Ohio State; Bojan Bogdanovic from Croatia and Andrew Goudelock of Charleston.
Also in was Howard "Trey" Thompkins, a 6'9" forward who's hoping to get picked in the lottery but may fall because of questions about his consistency.
In taking questions about the prospects and team strategy, Billy King said, "I think you have to do what is right for you. I don't think you can duplicate what the Lakers did. you can't duplicate what Boston did. You have to build a team that you think that can win." King also said the Nets sent their physical therapist to Utah recently to work with Deron Williams.
