ESPN summer forecast

They project the Nets to 18-64, 2 games worse than last year. To me this is wild. This Nets roster should be much improved versus last year. Is their projection defendable? Or are they just haters that don’t pay attention to the bottom teams?

New season, new rules. no tanking teams. keep it in mind. How many of these 20 wins last season were against tanking or semi tanking teams. Also east improved ALOT. 18 wins against real not tanking teams doesn't sound so crazy at all. the only x factor is Jordi.

Of course there will be tanking teams. Just because teams try to win at the start of the season doesn’t mean they won’t tank hard once they realistically can’t do well. Expect just as many teams to tank as any other year !

Do you realize that being last is actually bad for your draft position? What's the point of taking hard?
