I've been saying the same thing- Kidd, VC, RJ, Sean, and Collins would be great. Once Sean really starts to gel in with that group, they'll be pretty tough to deal with. I noticed that Sean seemed somewhat lost when DA was PG the other night. I'd like for them to start to work together a bit more, although we'll see what happens when Marcus comes back (and if Boone wil be getting more time when he does)
Williams may soon become a starter</p> <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'></p> <div> <div>BY DAVE D'ALESSANDRO</div> </div> Star-Ledger Staff</p> BOSTON -- There was nothing coach Lawrence Frank said to suggest it, but it would appear that the Nets are moving inexorably to a lineup change.</p> It's a simple matter of efficiency: Nenad Krstic couldn't get anything going in his 13 minutes during last night's 91-69 loss to the Celtics, while rookie Sean Williams continued to dazzle everyone with a strong game across the board, including 14 points, seven rebounds and four blocks in 28 minutes</p> </div></p> </p> http://www.nj.com/nets/ledger/index.ssf?/b....xml&coll=1</p>
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (Jizzy)</div><div class='quotemain'></p> Christ, Collins is horrible.</p> </div></p> so, who would you play? Magloire, who is 2-17 from the field, can't hit foul shots, and is a turnover machine? Malik Allen, who is 9-31 and can't rebound? Boone, who looks like he'd rather be reading a book? Maybe you'd like to start Nachbar at PF, who can't hit a shot, makes lazy passes, and can't defend? It's easy to criticize Collins, but someone else has to step up. Maybe Collins doesn't offer much, but it is pretty damning to be able to say that no one else has been better. Sean Williams has rightfully been playing a lot, but who else? Jesus, Jizzy, stop ragging mercilessly on Collins and offer a suggestion. I swear, I have better conversations with my two-year-old.</p>
At least, other players try. Not like Collins, just stop there, and not to give the contributions on the paper to cover his impotent.</p>
When he puts Collins in there you are pretty much giving away 10 to 15 poinsts. How do teams defends against them? They only try to stop 4 people. 5 against 4, not a bad deal for the other teams. How does Collins constribute by taking charges? 0 to 4 points maybe.</p> </p> </p>
I don't see why not give him a shot. If he plays well then that's great. If he doesn't we stick Twin right back in there since he can't be traded since nobody wants him.</p>
Nets would lose by 170 points if they played Magloire and Malik Allen instead of Collins. The problem isn't Collins, it's the inability to develop someone who is better than he is, as pathetic as that sounds. Free agency is a fool's game.</p>
