<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (Dave D.)</div><div class='quotemain'></p> By the way, the Nets have added Jumaine Jones to their training camp roster.</div></p> I like this addition. I wish they could've added him last year. If Houston doesn't come here (which I'm hoping he won't), I hope Jumaine shows what he's done in past seasons with the Lakers and Bobcats and makes it on the team.</p>
I think Jumaine has a good shot at making the final roster if he does what he did when he was on Charlotte. I was hoping for him last season but him not getting off the bench on Phoenix is a bit suspect even though they had depth at his position.</p>
Roster math complicated by Williams injury.</p> Looks like:</p> --13 guaranteed contracts: Kidd, Carter, Jefferson, Krstic, Magloire, Collins, Nachbar, Robinson, Wright, Williams, Boone, Williams and Ilic.</p> --1 partially guaranteed contract: Hite. (14 total)</p> --3 vets with non-guaranteed deals: Allen, Jones, Gill. (17 total)</p> --3 D-League/international playerswith non-guaranteed deals: Benson, Cleaves, Freije. (20 total)</p> --and Allan Houston.</p> An NBA team can only bring 20 players into camp. So if Houston arrives (and the non-guaranteed guys are all still in camp), then someone has to be sent home (Jones?). If the Nets pick up a third string point guard like Darrell Armstrong, then someone else has to go.</p> </p>

Eddie Gill? Come on, man, let's not even waste an ounce of time with him. Darrell Armstrong, I would look at, but Gill's not even worth it.</p>

Can Hite play at the point guard position?</p> By the way, Darrell Armstrong is 39, he is very old.</p>
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (jarkid)</div><div class='quotemain'></p> Can Hite play at the point guard position?</p> By the way, Darrell Armstrong is 39, he is very old.</p> </div></p> </p> he did pretty good last year.</p> And the verdict's still out on Hite. Maybe he can play point guard, maybe he can't...but with his height, you'd expect him to have SOME point guard experience. Who knows.</p>
