The new look of the Nets

On draft day the Nets traded away one of their franchise players and got much younger bringing in 5 players, 3 are rookies, one sophmore, and a 28 year old simmons, whose big contract expires, the summer that Lebron becomes a free agent.
So what will the starting line up look like?
As long as Bokie and Nenad re-sign it could look like this
PG-Devon Harris
SG-Vince Carter
SF-Bokie Nachbar
PF- Nenad Krstic
C- Whoever wins the position battle
Most likely Lopez, but it could be Yi, Boone or even Williams
Frank will expirement with line up, because the roster is very young, and this will be interesting because, frank never really gave young players playing time, and he will have to, because there is no one else.
In 2 years it could be Lebron, but who will fill RJ's spot now?
It looks like the starter will be Bokie, as long as he re-signs, and the Nets have money to give so he should be re-signed.
The backups will be the 2 rookies Anderson, and Douglass-Roberts, and veteran Trenton Hassel, and Bobby Simmons, who could bounce back from an injury plagued season, and win the the starting job.
Other notes
It looks like Diop is gone now because thte Nets really don't have space for him with the 3 new bigs they got.
It looks like the Nets will have to sign another backup SG-SF, during free agency.
