Anthony Puccio of Nets Daily discusses why Thaddeus Young should thrive playing in an uptempo offense and explains why swapping him for the No. 20 pick was a win-win move for both teams.
"(At) this point in my career, and I know the past two years with his situation," Al Jefferson said at his introductory press conference before motioning toward Thaddeus Young. "...I know we're hungry, and we want to make changes for ourselves."
The "situation" which Jefferson was referring to was Young enduring a sort of quasi-rebuilding purgatory in Brooklyn while the Nets won 21 games last season.
