How could you fix the Nets at this point?

If Prokhorov fired Billy King and hired you as GM
Obviously just have to blow up the entire team. I don't think they have any picks for a minute so not sure what tanking would do.
No way you could turn it around for 2-3 years at the least.... Maybe fire sale everyone including Daron and softy Brook Lopez. Go after Durant?

They are that rare team that is horrible now, with no chance at being not horrible in the foreseeable future. Boston gets a few of their 1st round picks in the upcoming years from the Gerald Wallace trade and I think the one they do get to keep, Atlanta has the option to swap #1s with them (which they obviously will).
This team has no cap flexibility and absolutely no assets to package as incentive to move all those horrible contracts. They are the worst GM situation in the league. You can't blow it up because you have no draft picks to look forward to. Best-case scenario you get to be a fringe playoff team in the east for the rest of the decade and lose in the first round.

Who knows. The best way to rebuild is what Ainge is doing in Boston now. The Nets can't do that however because a huge part of that Celtic plan is gathering 1st round picks. Hoping for splash free agent signings is an awful way to run an NBA franchise. A GM needs to gather young, energetic talent that can be bartered off to other teams piece by piece. Eventually gather enough picks and solid enough talent to pull off a huge trade. It will take some time before NYC basketball is back to being relevant. Sucks. The city deserves good roundball.

Unfortunately the only way they can do it is to just let everyone expire.
I would do everything I could to move guys for expirings.
It's going to take 5 years for them at least.

Warriors could ship someone and picks for Lopez if Bogut never gets healthy, but he's just not stout enough defensively I'm afraid. I say this as a Stanford honk.

Your best hope is screwing over the Kings with that rumored Deron for Collison and Thompson deal.
