New Jersey Nets: 5 Biggest Issues They Need To Address This Offseason

Just days after seemingly losing out on the Carmelo Anthony race with crosstown rival New York, the Nets acquired an arguably better player at a lower price when they shocked the world by announcing their trade to acquire Deron Williams. 

Of course the question that immediately came up—and reasonably so—was whether or not they could keep him.

And therein lies the goal of the Nets this year: to have a good enough season to convince Williams to stay. That's going to require a big turnaround for a team that was one of the worst in the NBA the last two years. It's not impossible though. 

After Williams came, the Nets averaged nine points per game more in games which he played. Kris Humphries looked like an All-Star suddenly, averaging 15 points and 13 boards in games which Williams played. 

With the right moves, the Nets could vault themselves into playoff position and be good enough to convince Williams that there's a title in his future if he stays with the team.
