I do miss him and I wish we matched the Kings' offer instead of signing Magloire. Its only a 1mil difference so I don't think he was that out of budget.

It was a calculated risk that... failed... poorly. -Petey
It's hard to miss the guy when his giant 7'+ frame is standing in my room. Hell yeahhhh I've held on to that thing.

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (Angelo1405 @ Mar 6 2008, 03:06 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}></div><div class='quotemain'>hes wasting his time in sacramento !!!!</div> The real problem is that the Nets lost two shooters from last year's team: Moore and House. It's only now that they may be replacing Moore as Krstic regains his health. They did nothing to replace House. In an NBA that allows zone defenses, teams need several players who can make open jump shots.
Would this team be drastically better with him here? no, problably not. That being said...he always seemed like a good guy, and way one of that people that was real easy to like. In that sense, I miss him.
I miss Mikki's passion and his game, he was great offensively. That midrange jumper was money and he was an easy guy to root for, seemed like an easygoing guy that enjoys what he does. I'm happy for him as a fan since he deserved that money he got and was sad to see him go but it just wasn't in the cards.

Like was said earlier, not having players with Mikki and House's ability to hit shots are the biggest reason this team is where it is.
