Extractions: Welcome to the 2000 Usenet Mock NBA Draft. The first pick belongs to the New Jersey Nets. Their Net GM is: Curtis Hill . With the first pick, the Nets select Stromile Swift, PF, 6'8" LSU The New Jersey Nets , after many years of tireless yet fruitless effort to pass the Los Angeles Clippers as the worst franchise in the NBA, have given up the quest. It is a sad day. OK, maybe it isn't a sad day, at least not for Nets fans. In the past year, the new YankeesNets corporation has purchased the team. While one cannot guarantee that the YankeesNets will make the Nets as successful as the Yankees, you can expect the corporation to back the effort with resources and direction. These two qualities seemed to be lacking with the Nets since about 1977. A sign of that the YankeesNets are serious about making the Nets winners came in just the past week, when Rod Thorn was lured away from the NBA front office to run the struggling Nets basketball operations. While one cannot blame the Nets' problems with just one piece of the front office, a fresh start with a quality president of basketball operations is a good place to start. I think the Nets were wise to turn down the advances of John Thompson (and David Falk ) to run the team. Thorn is a respected, tested NBA veteran who will bring the club much needed respect around the league. However, while Thorn does not inherit a team with a complete dearth of talent, the Nets have problems. The current roster is not loaded with superstar talent and, more importantly, the team needs to do a better job of retaining their own free agents and convincing free agents to sign with the team. Thorn should be able to help on these fronts.
