3. Buck Williams

In terms of duration, Buck Williams is the top of the Nets' food chain as he is the franchise leader in Games Played, Minutes Played, and is also the leader in Rebounds and is second all-time in Points.  This isn’t a bad way to start discussing Buck Williams and his time with the New Jersey Nets.

2. Julius Erving

Jason Kidd might be the man we named the best all-time Brooklyn Net, but that does not necessarily mean we think he was the greatest player to ever suit up for the organization.

That man is Julius Erving.

1. Jason Kidd

When Jason Kidd was traded from the Phoenix Suns to the New Jersey Nets in a mega-trade, he was already established as the best Point Guard in the NBA, a mantle he kept in his few seasons with his new team.  Kidd transformed the Nets from a team missing the playoffs to an NBA Finals contender.  Kidd missed out on being the MVP (which he probably should have won), but he was again a First Team All-NBA and a First Team All-Defensive Selection.  Nobody in the history of the franchise ever turned around the team like Jason Kidd did.
