#1: Brooklyn Nets 

-Dennis Schroder 

-Cam Thomas 

-Cam Johnson 

All of these players are pretty good, but none of them top out at anything more than a role player. 

Schroder should be a veteran backup at this point in his career. He’s still a good player but if he’s your best player, you are in trouble. 

Thomas puts up numbers but is wildly inefficient and can’t play defense, so he’d be best served as a heat check guy off the bench, not as your leading scorer, which he likely will be. 

Johnson is one of the most overrated and overpaid players in the league, as he puts up Corey Kispert-like stats on half the number of games played and four times the salary. 

He’s a one-trick pony even when he’s healthy, which is never. He’ll be traded at some point and the Pistons should stay far away. 

The Nets are tanking, so it wouldn’t be surprising to see at least two of these players traded this season if not all three.

Their top three players wouldn’t start on almost any other team, which is why Brooklyn finds themselves at the top of the list of worst Big 3’s in the league.
