Let's figure this out.</p> If there's no one, I hope there's some kind of rebuilding plan in place.</p> Last year's plan seemed rushed and unfocused.</p>
Pau Gasol, but I doubt he will be available, and Memphis probably doesn't want anything we have.</p> The Nets could ethier wait until someone comes on the market, or consider other options, such as blowing up the team.</p>
Shawn Marion would be a great fit in this team. He is the efficiency man they need, since they really have no one who is real efficient and no one on the nets ranks even top 15 in efficieny.</p>
Marcus Camby, but his price tag is too high and there is that injury prone thing.</p> Elton Brand, probably have to wait a year for him if that, but my guess is LA could be looking to cut their loses.</p>
We're getting a brand new starting front court this year that we didn't have last year. </p> </p> But if I had to go after a name guy not named Kenyon Martin, I'm a bit unsure. People seem to be very opinionated between Gasol and Jermaine. With the Pacers being in our conference I'm quite informed about O'Neal, but how is gasol that much better? Jermaine can rebound, shoot, and score down low. </p>
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (L)</div><div class='quotemain'>i wouldnt mind going after Gasol or even Brand.</div></p> Trade a bunch of players for a guy we won't get to use this year?</p>
Paris Hilton has a better chance of becoming the next President of the USofA</p> </p> The appropriate course of action is</p> </p>
Kidd, Carter, JO and company looks pretty good to me. Or swith JO with Gasol. Pretty damn good chance at winning the title. (or the east at least)</p> And yea there is a rebuilding plan, like moving to Brooklyn. </p>
Tim Duncan?</p> </p> In all seriousnes, next year, if Kidd hasn't fallen apart, Brand would be great. Or Gasol now.</p>

As far as I can tell, there's nothing that's gonna get you there short of really rolling the dice on a "talented but troubled" sort of PF. A guy like Randolph, if you could get him for nothing, might have been that guy. </p> That's not saying he wouldn't have blown up in your face, but he's the only sort of guy I saw who (if he behaved himself) properly filled your hole without likely forcing you to give up any of the big 3 or Krstic. </p> At the moment, I don't see anyone like that. A year away is probably too far away... I wouldn't rely on Kidd to stay with it, so I'd be looking to nuke it like cpaw said. </p>
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (ly_yng)</div><div class='quotemain'>Consider this the 3rd vote for "blow it up."</div> If you really meant it you would have found your own cool picture
Krstic, Collins and Nachbar make between 9 and 10 million. That's the most the Nets could give up to get this mythical player and contend. Trading RJ would likely not result in enough of an improvement to put the Nets on another level.
Say the Nets are a middle-of-the road team, and we all don't want that, but has anyone considered the financial implications of a rebuilding team as the Nets move to Brooklyn in 2009?</p>

Rebuilding at least gives the appearance of hope.</p>
