Is Jarrett Allen a potentially elite? Jury is out (so far)

There is no doubt how the Nets brass feels about Jarrett Allen’s future.

“I was really impressed with how he improved during the playoffs alone from Game 1 to Game 5 and how he just kept getting better,” Atkinson said during his end of the season media availability.

“His rebounding improved this year, but he’s a key cog. He’s still 21. I think in our exit meetings yesterday we talked to him about the things we wanted him to work on. I expect him to listen, and in two, three years, to be an elite center in this league.
