AM: One of the changes for Brooklyn has been an influx of younger talent with some quality pick-ups from the draft. Chris McCullough may not feature due to injury, but what are your hopes for Rondae Hollis-Jefferson?

CG: There are high hopes that Hollis-Jefferson can be an immediate impact off the bench this season.

Especially defensively, it gives the Nets a viable option for a defensive stopper at the wing position when Joe Johnson is out of the game. It’s hopeful he can average somewhere between 7-10 points and 4-6 rebounds per game for his rookie season.
