For Napier, generously listed at 6’1”, Brooklyn just seemed like the perfect fit … and for a lot of reasons, starting with the Nets growing rep for making players better. “I think the fact guys are willing to get better, guys are proving themselves each and every year, doing something better each and every year, it’s just great for the franchise and definitely great for the city of Brooklyn.
The Boston native said as well that he appreciates the city game. “I know the city of Brooklyn has rabid fans. I know how that goes. It’s great to see them continue to do that. I think my part in it is to continue to compete and continue to fill whatever void needs to be filled and go in there with a mindset of competing and trying to win games.”
Napier said Crabbe’s role was critical. “Yeah, I talk to Allen Crabbe a lot, Ed Davis as well,” Napier said of his former Blazer teammates, who will all represent Brooklyn this coming season. “Those are my guys from Portland. I was in California at the time. Me and Allen exchange texts all the time. It was just a text message here and there, a call here and there before I made my decision to understand the type of environment Brooklyn is and the facility and everything. All I heard was great things about it. It was easy for me to choose after that.”

Bobby Marks: Brooklyn now with 14 players (13 guaranteed) under contract after the Shabazz Napier signing. The Nets are right at the cap and can now begin the process of signing Joe Harris (early bird exception) and Ed Davis (room midlevel exception) to exceed the salary cap.
Adrian Wojnarowski: Free agent guard Shabazz Napier has agreed to a two-year deal with the Brooklyn Nets, league sources tell ESPN. Napier, 27, had his best pro season with the Blazers last year.
