The Nets were a pretty bad squad a year ago versus the NBA sports books odds but with a new owner, a lot of salary cap space and a new head coach, the Nets could be much better in 2010 in NBA betting. 
The Nets have not been able to make a big free agent splash so it may take time for them to make big improvements versus the basketball sportsbook online odds.
Forward Travis Outlaw is not thought to be to be a premier player, but they did sign him to a five-year, $35 million deal. He averaged 8.7 points and 3.6 rebounds in 23 competitions for the Los Angeles Clippers last year after moving over from Portland. He’s averaged 9.5 points and 3.4 rebounds in seven seasons and is a great complementary player but not a star.
Nonetheless, don’t discount Outlaw yet. The Nets had no small forward, and they were willing to take a shot on him – that was the important reason, he has said, that he determined to join the Nets. He’s been a steady 6th man for most of his career, earning him the nickname “Mr Fourth Quarter” for his late match heroics. But now head coach Avery Johnson has promised him more than that. Look for a motivated Outlaw to be given the opportunity to demonstrate himself as a quality player in the upcoming season.
The Nets have a new owner in Mikhail Prokhorov who is willing to spend money but each one of the big name free agents decided against going to New Jersey. The Nets may add other competitors before next season since they still have a lot of salary cap room but head coach Avery Johnson will almost certainly have to wait another year for big assistance. New Jersey is thinking about including either Tyrus Thomas or Luis Scola but both of those competitors are below the elite level.
New Jersey has a lot of money to spend but free agents like LeBron James, Chris Bosh, Dwyane Wade, Amare Stoudemire, Carlos Boozer and Rudy Gay avoided the Nets. It also looks as if New York’s David Lee has little interest in the Nets. LeBron James in particular made it apparent he was looking for a squad with a winning track record, 1 who would give him a championship before the end of his career. And he evidently did not feel as though the Nets would offer that.
The Nets could look to free up more cap room for 2001 or 2012 since they were spurned by top free agents this time. The Nets are discussing offers with Indiana and Portland for Danny Granger and LaMarcus Aldridge. Those 2 competitors would support them this season and they could then get rid of their contracts after this season to free up money.
Last year, New Jersey was a straight up 12-70. They weren’t that much better versus the spread as they went 33-48-1. Since they did not make a big free agent splash, they probably will not be better enough to make the playoffs, though the Nets will be improved this season.
