The Brooklyn Nets are likely done making moves this offseason. With training camp underway, the focus should be shifting to crafting an effective rotation. With that said, what were the best moves of the offseason?

D’Angelo Russell is here. Allen Crabbe has finally arrived. DeMarre Carroll is reunited with Kenny Atkinson.

The Brooklyn Nets brought in a lot of new faces this offseason.

Some pundits think the Nets will continue to tread water even in a weak Eastern Conference. With Brooklyn now conveying their pick to Cleveland, the idea the Nets can make a substantial leap in the standings isn’t being considered by most analysts.

Regardless, Nets fans know this was a great offseason for the team. At the end of the day, games need to played and watched. The Brooklyn Nets are definitely infinitely more watchable now than they were last season.

The best parts about last year’s team will return. Sean Kilpatrick will still be getting buckets. Caris LeVert will still be impressive as he continues to grow into a key rotation piece. Rondae Hollis-Jefferson will still be causing chaos on defense.

Even last year’s role players will be back. Spencer Dinwiddie and Isaiah Whitehead will be facilitating the offense when Russell and Jeremy Lin need a breather. Joe Harris will continue to try and be the team’s Klay Thompson. Trevor Booker and Quincy Acy will continue to provide toughness despite being undersized in the post.

The Nets will still provide some Brooklyn Grit. It will just welcome plenty of new faces in the hope that more talent will lead to an improved on-court product.

Here are all of the offseason moves ranked:
