I don't get how when Greg Anthony states that the loss of Mikki Moore will hurt the bench. Mikki was playing starter minutes that Krstic had and couldn't put up the same numbers.</p> Having Krstic and Magloire is better than Mikki IMO.</p>
I dont get it. Kristic is back and he's shooting 3's. RJ is back to 100% which will do wonders for the defense. Boki off the bench is ready to have the best season of his career. Magliore is the best rebounder the nets have had in a long time. And all this amounts to barely a blip in the standings. Maybe a .500 season if they're lucky. The analysts try to be a little to cute with their pre-season rankings. The NBA is by far the most predictable of the 3 majors.</p>

When I saw Greg wrote that, I was extremely puzzled. Mikki's not even that good, both Krstic and Magloire are better individually...I don't see why he would say something like that. Usually, I value his opinion somewhat, but here, he just has no clue what he's talking about.</p>
That's classic, Dumpy.</p> Krstic truly is the wild card though. How he reacts this season after having surgery on his ACL will be key to our success this season.</p>
Another thing I found fishy was..</p> <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Kidd banged up now after a brilliant Team USA summer</div></p> First I've heard of this. I know he's fatigued but that's bad wording by Mr. Stein to maybe pursuade others to think about our recent health crisis. Just my thoughts though.</p>
