He's gone, by the way, and Williams, age 21, is averaging more points, rebounds and blocks this seasonthan Martin, age 30, is.</p> And oh yeah, Martin hurt his back last night.</p>
Kidd should work hard with Shaun Williams as far as timing and coordination. The Kid is better than Martin during his rookie year. Last night against Miami Kidd has so many turnovers and he looks sloppy. The thing with Williams is he does not have to jump so high like Martin because of his extraordinary long wing span.</p>
He'll never be as valuable as Martin because he is not a shut-down perimeter defender.</p> The second the Nets lost that confidence that they could stop anyone in a crucial possession is when they went from being a serious title contender to a pretender.</p> Maybe they can be more aggressive on the perimeter because Williams is such a gifted shot-blocker, but it's tough to build a defense around him because he is always going to be in foul trouble.</p>
<font style="background-color: #d8d0c8">You're right. Sean Williams is not a good perimeter defender by now, because many guards make the shots over him.</font></p> <font style="background-color: #d8d0c8">As long as he works hard in that area, he would be fine.</font></p>
I always preferred this mix.</p> <div><object width="425" height="350"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/3c-q3bt-LzE&"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/3c-q3bt-LzE&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="350" /></embed></object></div></p>

The kid is barely 21 years old, has been playing basketball for FIVE years. He didn't start playing til he was 16 and he is starting in the NBA, leading the league in shooting percentage and blocks per minute and you're saying he could never ever do something as well as the sainted, blessed KMart? How was KMart as a perimeter defender his sophomore year at Cincinnati?</p> I say BULLSHIT.</p> </p> </p> </p>
All I was saying by posting the video is that Kidd should work with Sean to get the timing down, if you notice the Nets do not have that same energy as when Martin was here, look at Kidd in a couple of the videos..he's jumping up and down and excited this team needs to get back to that, Frank needs to let these guys loose all these sets get on my nerves</p>

I'm tired of hearin bout K-Mart.. Bottom Line he's in Denver n not commin back and I would take Sean Williams over him anyday. The only thing I like about K-Mart that Sean doesn't have is that swagger.. If Sean can get that cocky swagger goin like he knows hes gonna teabag someone on a dunk n then send his ass to the stands on the other end of the court he will be AMAZING. At the moment he looks kinda shy like he doesnt wanna make a mistake. He has to stop worrying about doing wrong and thik of how to do right. Get this kid talkin shit n taunting n he'll be the top rookie period.</p>
Sometimes I think I see moments of Sean's personality. While knowing its just lip reading at best, I think he had something to say against KG, and Shaq (while at the free-throw line after a bogus call) in their respective games.</p>
The way he presents himself and talks, I doubt we will ever see him with as much energy as Kenyon after making a big play but alley oops and blocks speak volumes.</p>

I cant imagine anyone EVER playing with the amount of intensity that K-Mart did ever again. Seriously the guy probably deserved a technical foul after 90% of his dunks.</p>

The Spurs have one of the best ones ever and they are pretty good. The Pistons had two and that was enough to get them a title.</p> But the Nets' best player is Jason Kidd, and Williams is too little, too late to take advantage of that.</p> Still, whoever the Nets build around next has a nice piece to work with.</p> </p>
Perhaps this is sacrilege, but I don't think KMart was a flat out stopper. He was real good man to man, don't get me wrong, but didn't really have the size to play the best PFs (Duncan) or the speed to tackle the Kobes and Pierces of the world. I don't remember the Nets using Martin a lot on the opponents star SG/SF, that was mostly Kittles, Kidd, or RJ.</p> </p>
