I don't mind talking trash about the Nets fans in here, because God knows they won't leave the Nets forum. What the hell is with their obsession with CDR though? So I just read a Nets poster suggesting that they start Douglas-Roberts over Eduardo Najera, Bobby Simmons, Jarvis Hayes, and Maurice Ager. Whaaaaa?!?! C'mon, wake up! Your own team drafted Ryan Anderson over the guy at #21! He was a steal, great. But he's not a lottery pick that fell to the second round. He was just a guy worth a mid-to-late first rounder at best that fell into your laps. He's something to get excited about, but only in the sense that you guys scored a potential legitimate backup for the future, not a future All-Star. Just be realistic, Nets fans. This was a weak draft, and you guys are talking about a second rounder.

I concur, Ager isn't that good. I believe that Bobby Simmons will start, though. Not sure about anything else beyond that.
I'm not a real fan of Ager. But how can you say he sucks when you've never seen him play pro ball? (He's played what... like 40-something games as a pro so far because he was in a stacked Dallas rotation... nobody's seen his pro potential yet) And Ager aside, CDR as a small-forward? And over all those decent proven veterans? Just dumb, real dumb. Almost as dumb as the Nets fan who said if the draft were held today (post-summer league) then Brook Lopez would be the #1 pick. Thanks for bringing that to my attention, KC.
Ager didn't even perform in the D-League. An 11.0 PER in the D-League and 17.4 PPG has suck written all over it. At least Shannon put up some decent stats in the D-League You also have to consider basic math. There are so many Nets fans here, that there are bound to be idiotic posts. Painting all Nets fans with a broad brush based upon those few is just silly

I just think it's a little silly that CDR is being vaulted over him in the rotation, when CDR in my opinion, being a Michigan State fan from Memphis, is Ager part deux. Brown, however, I will defend to the death. Brown needs a shot in this league. He can still make it. As for the Nets forum, I'm not bashing. I love those guys as a whole. It's where most of my posts somehow wind up, but I find myself needing to vent from the occassional homer or two, haha. Gotta love the Warriors forum though.
Warriors forum is awesome. It's like an e-class on Warriors basketball. I can't find my social insurance number card...fuck.
I know its been ages since it happened, but did anyone catch Jay-Z's Glastonbury performance? It was awesome. He was the first ever hip hop headliner at Glastonbury (traditionally just rock) and he absolutely stole the show despite several doubters, such as Noel Gallagher of Oasis (hence the Wonderwall parody). Here's a youtube of it: <div><object width="425" height="350"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/mrDIOVXx-y8&"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/mrDIOVXx-y8&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="350" /></embed></object></div>

Sounds like Girl Talk; good stuff.
That was lame (Jay-Z I mean). I don't get why so many rappers come on stage with hype men. They can't rap on their own?
Lol, I love that line. Brandon D said it, some mixtape dude. They might bring Fresh Prince of Bel-Air back on NBC. That would be awesome, but I'm skeptical. I hope they don't ruin it.
Everybody's pretty much moved on. They'd have to pay Will Smith a ridiculous amount of money to return to TV. And it'd probably suck.
Winner of most mysterious poster is.....Lavalamp! Bro, you are hilarious and one of my favorite posters. I don't know what team you are a fan of (Raptors...Nets?) But I like what you do and I think you should be a Raptors fan.
