<div class="quote_poster">Quoting playmaker14:</div><div class="quote_post">Fact, he is a great scorer and will average around 15.</div> Why don't you continue the thread?
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting NbaBaller:</div><div class="quote_post">Fiction I still think VC is on a higher level than RJ. RJ will be very important to the Nets but VC will be more.</div> i agree with this and i think and wish that they'll really do coexist. Vince maybe the go-to guy for next 2-3 years and RJ as sidekick but after that it will be a complete 180, wit vince as sidekick & RJ as the main man. Only thru winning can this coexistence continue. So pray to the heavens we do get that athletic, big man and get to the playoffs and finals consistently.
ok theres no real question so i'll add on and yeah vc will still be our first option on offense and rj will be the second Fact or Fiction If the tandem of R.J. & V.C. can't co-exist to help win games will the nets try to make a package of V.C. & Kristic & fillers for Kevin Garnett
fiction KG would approve but the nets would not do that b/c who would play SG f/f kristic will be the breakout player of the year
fiction, i think he will do better than laat season but won't be a breakout player. Fact or fiction Murray will help the Nets more than Padgett
I have to day fiction here. VC will last as long as his athleticism lasts. We cannot forget the Jefferson is the franchise player here. Fact or Fiction. Mile Ilic will be on the team next season.
That's a tough one. I'll say fiction, he'll probably stay in Europe for another one or two years to get his body ready and skills polished for the NBA, taking Krstic as an example. Fact or Fiction The Nets will make a big trade by the trade deadline
fiction. I don't really see it happening. I think Nets will not even think about trading until maybe next offseason. Unless a deal of Krstic and Vaughn for Garnett (totally impossible). Other than that i don't see any big trades happening. Fact or fiction Having Vince Carter play for the Nets is better than Kenyon Martin and don't say Martin becuase of the hole in out PF postion.
I have to say fact Vince was an all-star before he even got to New Jersey and now with J-Kidd & R.J. he will be even more deadly. Martin wasn't able to create for himself like how VC was able to. Fact or Fiction J.Kidd will retire or be traded before the nets move to brooklyn
Fiction, I def. don't see him retiring before then. Him getting traded is more likely than him retiring though. Fact or Fiction. Krstic will in the future at a point be one of the top 5 centers in the game.
fact. I think if he keeps improving his game he will be a future top 5 center Fact or fiction. Nets were better of gettin someone instead of Lamond Murray.
Fact Murray doesn't have much left in the tank and the Nets were better off getting some frontcourt help. Fact or Fiction VC will go down in Nets history as the all time leading scorer
Fact. I think if he stays with the Nets for like 5 years or something he will be all time. Kidd will average 7 rebs again. Fact or fiction.
Fiction I don't think Kidd will be able to improve his rebounding with him getting older. Fact or Fiction VC will have the scoring title for the 2005-2006 season.
I think it will be less because Jefferson will demand shots and other players would want shots too so i think his scoring will decrease. Fact or fiction Nets will have a better season than Cavs and Pacers
Fiction I think the Nets will have a better record than the Cavs but not the pacers. The pacers have the best power forward in the eastern conference in Jermaine and they have the 2004 Defensive Player of The Year in Artest. They also have good cast of players in their roster and they also have good chemistry. The nets will probably take the atlantic and be at the 3rd seed and the pacers might be at the 4th seed unless they get a better record than the pistons. Fact or Fiction Antoine Wright will be as good or better than RJ 2 or 3 years from now.
Fiction. First, Wright is a different type of player (he is less physical compared to RJ and is more of a shooting guard). And Second, he is not going to get as good of an oppurtunity to develop as RJ did. RJ was a huge part of the rotation in his rookie year. Wright may be a huge part of the rotation this year, but next year that won't change so long as Carter and RJ remain. Of course if either get injured, then Wright will get his chance. Fact or Fiction. Kidd will shoot 40% or more from beyond the arch (i.e. Three point field goal percentage).
Fiction. I believe his best year was in 97, when he shot around 37-38%. He shot well last year, but he's never been consistent from a year-to-year basis. He might shoot well, but not at 40%. Fact or Fiction. RJ, VC, and Kidd will average at least 5.5 boards apiece.
