    from Netsdaily:
    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Darrell Armstrong has been with the Nets for just two days of practice, but his intensity and ability to pressure the ball has already won over fans, media and members of the organization. In his first fan mailbag, Al Iannazzone addresses Armstrong, while also answering questions about Collins vs. Magloire, Sean Williams&rsquo; playing time and Jason Kidd&rsquo;s happiness in New Jersey.</div></p>

    link</p>

    Fans tell Al his defense, shooting, and leadership should help the Nets...which I believe everyone would agree with.</p>

    Also, one fan called him "DStrong"...which I find interesting. Where did that nickname come from?</p>

    When answering the fan mail...</p>

    He clarifies that Stiffins (Collins) would be the starter, of course...and says that Magloire won't beat him out. He doesn't really say that Magloire won't start over Krstic, which is what I'm wondering, he just says he won't take Collins' spot.</p>

    Says how Sean Williams will take on a "Hassan Adams" type of role: with "energy, enthusiasm and athleticism to come up with a big rebound, block or highlight reel dunk". Here's a quote of interest:
    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>But I can't imagine he'll be used unless the Nets are decimated by injuries or Lawrence Frank has tried everything and is looking for a lift from somewhere, like he did Adams in Boston last year.</div></p>

    Also says that Al believes that although Kidd thought about going to LA with Kobe, he would like to remain a Net. Innazzone believes "they need a big-time power forward, ie. Jermaine O'Neal, to put with Kidd and Vince Carter. We'll see."</p>

    And lastly, my immature side would like to point out this from the article:
    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>But Kidd likes this team and thinks tit can go far if it stays healthy.</div></p>
