Is this still the point guard? The Nets No. 8 pick has zero assists throughout the game, and the persistent defender players are not as good as the first round of the 5th round.

The Las Vegas Summer League kicked off today, and people can finally see what the previous high-profile rookies are. Especially like the Brooklyn Nets, which has five first-round teams this year, it is not an exaggeration to say that their team is an "All-Star" team for the Summer League.

Although the player attention is relatively high, it does not mean that the player is strong. Especially this year's No. 8 pick Deming said he would lead the team to perform well before the game. However, when the game ended, Deming played for 23 minutes, made 2 of 5 shots and scored only 8 points and 4 rebounds, without an assist. If this is a rookie in the last round, then it is still a passing grade, but this is the only top 10 rookie in the Nets this year, and only the Nets have the highest draft pick this year.

Especially Deming's speech after the game may disappoint the Nets even more. After the game, Deming said that there are many people in the team who can organize the offense, so he doesn't have to do such a job. But without the tandem organization, the Nets would not have the need to choose Deming. Before the draft, Deming was just a rookie in the middle of the first round among many list predictions.

In the NCAA league season, Deming averaged 10.6 points, 3.9 rebounds and 5.5 assists per game, shooting percentage of 41.2% and three-point shooting percentage of 27.3%. It is precisely because of his shortcomings in shooting that do not match his height of 2.07 meters. This made Deming so disliked. One of the important reasons why the Nets chose Deming in the eighth pick is that they want to get a cornerstone that can be built on the team. Before that, several talented defenders in the 25th class, such as Dylan Harper, VJ Edgecomb, Trey Johnson, Jeremiah Fells, etc., have been selected in the top 8 picks.

, and the remaining players such as Deming, Nolan, Clayton, and others were all around 15-20 in the first round. Only Yaku, who had a higher ranking in the simulation draft at the time, was not within the Nets' draft range because the upper limit was not high. Therefore, the team is somewhat helpless to choose Deming. However, when they still insist on choosing the defender at the 8th pick, perhaps this year's draft result is destined to be disappointing.

was first in the 8th pick, and Colin Murray Boyles, who had the top three potentials on the front line, had not been selected yet. The team can completely win this forward star in advance. And in the 19th pick, they are likely to win Deming, the team's favorite backcourt player. Even if Deming was chosen at that position, the Nolan Traore they originally chose was a good alternative. In today's game between the Nets and the Thunder, Nolan made 3 of 5 shots in the game and scored 13 points, 3 rebounds and 3 assists. Both personal efficiency and on-court effect were much better than Deming.

The remaining 22, 26 and 27 picks can be completely selected to trade upwards and get a draft pick with a 15th pick in the first round. At this time, the team has a lot of initiative in selecting players in the center position. For example, Sauber, who is 15th pick, Yang Hansen, who is 16th pick, and Berlange, who is 17th pick are all options. Instead of the final five rookies, there is not a serious center player.

I have to say that the Brooklyn Nets still have too little experience in the draft. The team is used to signing or trading directly to get big-name stars and quickly complete the reconstruction. In addition, in the past few years, the team has already squandered the draft picks by forming the three giants of Harden, Durant and Irving. This year, it suddenly has 5 first rounds, which has somewhat messed up the management.

At the same time, it is not difficult to find out from those rebuilding teams that although good players will be selected in the second half of the first round, the probability is much lower. Especially now that scouts are getting more and more meticulous, the possibility of missed selection is getting smaller and smaller. For example, in the Rockets' reconstruction, none of them stayed behind in the past two years, Martin Jr., TOEFL, Garuba, Tate Washington, and rookies like Whitmore with more than 20 picks.

Now looking at the Nets' operations, such a draft method that focuses on quantity but not quality may end up shooting oneself in the foot! What do you think of the Nets' five first round choices this year? Welcome to like, follow, leave a message to discuss!
