Grade this team's roster:
The Brooklyn Nets are getting about fair value from their salary commitments, earning a C- CVI grade across 9 contracts evaluated. 3 contracts grade as positive value (B+ or better), while 1 falls below fair market value. The contract portfolio is a mix of good and questionable deals, reflecting normal roster-building challenges. Cap flexibility is adequate but not exceptional — the team has limited room for high-end acquisitions. Of 18 total rostered players, 9 have contracts eligible for CVI evaluation. The payroll management is adequate but could improve with better contract negotiations.
The Brooklyn Nets roster grades as rebuilding overall, earning a F Performance grade based on 18 graded players. The roster features 1 All-Star caliber performer (A-grade), providing a high-end talent foundation. 4 players grade as quality starters (B-range), 13 as rotation contributors (C-range), and 0 as depth or below (D/F-range). With a star and supporting pieces, the roster has the nucleus to compete, though depth remains a factor. An active season with 17 moves shows the front office is aggressively reshaping the roster. Significant upgrades are needed before this team can compete for a playoff spot.
Fan and media sentiment around the Brooklyn Nets' season has been largely negative, earning a D overall sentiment grade. Of 12 graded moves, 1 received positive reactions, 6 were mixed, and 5 drew negative sentiment. The most well-received move was the Terance Mann acquisition, which earned a B+ sentiment grade. The most criticized move was the Michael Porter transaction, which received a F sentiment grade. There is widespread concern among fans about the team's direction and decision-making. A significant on-court turnaround would be needed to shift the current negative perception.
