The Nets were one of the big winner this offseason using two maximum contract slots to lure Kyrie Irving and an injured Kevin Durant to Brooklyn. They have been a darling of the league the last few seasons punching, at times, above their weight with a combination of a solid culture and ascending players such as Spencer Dinwiddie and Caris LaVert. Now that they are talented as, basically, any team in the league will they be able to put it all together in year one and be a real contender? The Pelicans won the Zion lottery (literally), traded a no doubt top 10 player in the league and added veterans such as JJ Redick and Derrick Favors. Will they have a singular objecting on the season (win as many games as possible?) Or will there also be a developmental objective that at times takes a higher priority? All of this and more.@LawtonWillis@willis_glen Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
