The Brooklyn Nets are at a crossroads. They will have no shortage of tough decisions to make during the upcoming NBA offseason.
This team could go in any number of directions. If they wanted to, they could rebuild. On the other hand, they could also make a push toward contention.
The infrastructure is there. This team is stacked with quality defenders and role players.
Moreover, Mikal Bridges has looked the part of a strong second offensive option since joining them at the trade deadline.
What they’re missing is an offensive focal point. If the Nets want to get back to contention, they need a player who can carry their offense when the need arises.
Could Damian Lillard of the Portland Trail Blazers be that player?
