    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">The Nets released their opening night rosters on Monday and Ben Handlogten is on it. He joins Linton Johnson III and Antoine Wright on the inactive list, which can be changed on a game by game basis this season. Handlogten likely has a partially-garunteed contract.</div>

    --------

    Not really shocked that Handlogten made the team...no really quality size became available after teams made their last cuts over the last week. Plus Handlogten had a decent preseason early.

    Anyway, I think even though the inactive list can be changed on a daily basis, this move of putting Wright on the inactive pretty much tells the story that unless someone goes down the Nets dont really have much reason to play Wright this year. I even think that if a wing does go down (please dont let such happen) at this point Linton Johnson comes off the inactive list before Wright.

    Not particularly surprising. After seeing how Handlogten handled the minutes he did get, I suppose he deserves a spot. And Antoine Wright has project written all over him. They don't need him now, so why push it?

    I also had a feeling he would be on the team. He seemed to me to play when he was given some minutes.
