Yes, we know that this is taking a while!
As many of you know, we at Notinhalloffame.com are slowly generating the top 50 of each major North American sports team. That being said, we have existing Top 50 lists and consistently look to update them when necessary and based on necessity. As such, we are delighted to present our post-2023 revision of our top 50 Brooklyn Nets.
As for all of our top 50 players in basketball, we look at the following:
1. Advanced Statistics.
2. Traditional statistics and how they finished in the National Basketball Association.
3. Playoff accomplishments.
4. Their overall impact on the team and other intangibles that are not reflected in a stat sheet.
Last year, Brooklyn, which is now entirely devoid of its big three, Kevin Durant, Kyrie Irving, and James Harden (which led to zero titles), is back to rebuilding. The Nets failed to make the playoffs, and there were no new entries, though two elevations.
As always, we present our top five, which saw no changes:
1. Jason Kidd
2. Julius Erving
3. Buck Williams
4. Brook Lopez
5. Vince Carter
You can find the entire list here.
Nic Claxton moved to #24 from #40.
Spencer Dinwiddie, who was traded to the Lakers late in the year, still rose significantly from #35 to 28.
The jumps of Claxton and Dinwiddie reflect the few stars the Nets have had and the relative brevity of players' time there.
We thank you for your continued support of our lists on Notinhalloffame.com.
