Funny thing is if the Nets went on like a 6 game win streak, Jizzy would start a threadtitled "I love this team". Jizzy should change his name to Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde.</p> </p>

The nets have no energy when they play and Frank is doing a horrible time putting players like sean and maglore in. Sean should get more pt and Maglore should at least get limited minutes, this team is soo weak in the paint.</p>

Just my two cents, by the all star break Frank might have lost his players. How many blow outs this early season? Anyone notice Kidd's body language on the bench</p>

Another way to look at this season so far is the Nets haven't played that well and they're still 8-9. If/when they click how good will they be is what we have to hope for.</p>
