<u>Will They Return?</u> <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Jul 13 - By no means is Mikki Moore out of the picture. But two other members from last season's team, Eddie House and Cliff Robinson, likely will not return. Moore's marketplace is shrinking. Memphis signed Darko Milicic, and Chicago, the other team with interest, offered less than the original Nets pitch. House likely will end up elsewhere. "He is looking around," Rod Thorn said, adding he is "not sure" if the guard will return. The Nets almost certainly will buy out Robinson for $500,000 by Sunday. -- New York Post </div> <div align="center"></div> Source
I'm okay with Cliffy leaving, but why Eddie House? We always needed instant offense, and just because he was injured last year, doesn't necessarily mean we have to give up on him just yet. It's not like we're stacked with shooters, so I'm definitely against this decision.
Nets Waive Cliff Robinson <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">The New Jersey Nets have requested waivers on forward Clifford Robinson, Nets President Rod Thorn announced today. Robinson averaged 4.1 points, 2.4 rebounds and 1.0 assists in 50 contests this past year, which was 18th NBA campaign, making him the most tenured active player during the 2006-07 season. The UConn product went on to appear in four games for the Nets during the 2007 NBA Playoffs, totaling three points in 20 minutes. In 159 games over two and a half years with the Nets, Robinson averaged 5.8 points, 3.0 rebounds and 1.1 assists.</div> Source It's official.
Cliff has a nice little run here, but he is getting way too old to be productive anymore. I just hope we keep Eddie House.
