    They sent Antoine Wright home for the summer with three directives: Take 1,000 jumpers a day, learn to use your dribble more judiciously, and come back in better shape than anybody else on the team, because at 10 to 20 minutes per game, you have no business playing with any less intensity than a human tornado.</div></p>

    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>The Nets have until Oct. 31 to pick up a fourth-year option on Wright's contract, and he knows he must blow them away to prove he is worthy of the significant raise that comes with it.</div></p>

    i like wright, but i rather use the money for boki and nenad. hopefully wright has a good year for us, but if he doesnt i dont want to be giving him 2mil plus to stick around. if anything maybe he could be used as trade bait to maybe get an upgrade (doubt it, but with an expiring contract you never know). if he plays well i wouldnt mind trying to resign him depending on other talent out there next year, but even though ive been pro-wright since we got him i need to see it first. he supposidly had a great summer, but summer and regular season are totally different. i think we will pick it up because of his defense, but im not sure</p>

    Wright pisses me off. All these off-seasons shooting so much...you'd think he'd be able to at least top 33% from 3.</p>

    I wouldnt' pick up his option. Has not proven a thing on the court, he may have worked off season, but it hasn't shown.</p>
