2. Jordan Hill

Brooklyn tried to acquire Hill from the Los Angeles Lakers at the trade deadline last season, and they are likely to work hard at signing him this offseason. He would give them the extra rebounding and post defense that the Nets needed last year, and he has a very solid offensive game as well. Hill averaged 9.7 points and 7.4 rebounds per game with the Lakers last season, and did that in just 20.8 minutes per game. The Nets need to add some firepower to their bench, and this would add both offensive and defensive help. His price is likely going to be a bit above what the Nets can afford, but they can move some things around to clear the necessary space.
