Good stuff. As a new Nets fan, I would like to say that following this team is fun. There are a lot of sites/blogs such as the one posted above, Netsdaily, NJ.com, the New York based newspapers, etc. that provide so much info on the Nets. No offense to the Bucks franchise, but they basically have one credible newspaper (Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel) and two solid blogs to follow, that's it.

leaving the team as is would make us a 30 win team, if that. I was hopeing for Noicioni or Camby, but at this point I'm really pulling for Dooling and hopeing to get rid of KVH, Hassel, and Swift. We already know Nenad and Boki are gone.
The obvious avenue is to pursue is the LA Clippers, who have a doughnut now at the PF position since Elton Brand left unexpectedly. Cuttino Mobley has two years left on his deal. How about a package of big men + KVH + Marcus Williams if need be, for Mobley? I don't buy this idea that the Nets need a big time SF. They just need a stop gap for two years until theoretically Lebron arrives. You don't want to create an unecessary roster conflict at that position. I think the Nets are adequate for two years at SF as currently constituted.
Damn, I was sorta looking forward to Andres. Oh well, might be better off without that ugly contract.
if they somehow get mobley..(i dont kno his contract situation) couldnt we move carter to SF? and have a lineup of harris / carrol? mobley / cdr / hayes / ager carter / simmons / anderson / yi / najera / swat / boone / lopez and thats our line up shippin marcus, hassel, kvh contract, swift

His basketball IQ sucks, like a black hole. This might work in NBA 2k8 though IF we had taken Brent Barry it world have worked better.
