    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (NetsDaily)</div><div class='quotemain'>Power rankings at this point in time are essentially meaningless. As teams become what their records say they are, the Nets have stabilized at #21/22. There are some saving graces. Marc Stein of ESPN notes that Devin Harris has had three double digit assists games as a Net, compared to two in three plus years with the Mavs, and Marty Burns of Sports Illustrated gives Vince Carter credit for playing through pain.</div>

    It's a shame that Carters' efforts have been in vain. Maybe next season?

    Oh well. Devin's success has eclipsed our dismal season. IMO Devin + the lottery pick pretty much make up for this shitty season.

    I couldn't care less about people getting their due for their effort now when they dogged it earlier in the season. Yes these last games were important, but they were just as important in November.

    Thank Mr. Kidd for that.
