    You dont hate RJ because of the way he talks. You hate RJ because your team could have had him in the draft. You would love his 15pts per game & extreme athletism if it was in a jersey that says Rockets in front of it. Dont hate RJ, hate Rob thorn for out smarting your gm. You guys could have had a proven winner(several final four appreances at the University of Arizona) in RJ & a smart intelligent ball player in Jason Collins but you traded away for a guy who only had one good season at Seton Hall, in Eddie Griffen. Now he going on trail for attemrted murder & RJ is one of the rising stars in the league. Your team took a risk & it back fired. DONT HATE RJ appericate the fact that the Nets were smart to understand that RJ & JC were better able to handle the pressure that comes along with being an NBA star.

    Well you had me there. But I've been through this before. Who would turn down tons of potential? Also, there aren't a lot of Tayshaun Prices and RJs in the league, are there, guys who spend 4 years in college and still have a lot of undiscovered potential.

    no doubt eddie g didnt work out. but you do realize the rockets wouldnt have taken jefferson anyways. they already had an athletic player who couldnt shoot worth a lick at the 3 in shandon anderson. in fact, durring the time there was speculation the rockets were going to go with size over questions at the 3, hence eddie g, speculation at the time saw names like murphy, hunter, bradley, haywood.

    Andrei Kirilenko right now, he's so amazing, getting every stat.
    Raptors are my favourite team right now, but they need a big man.

    Fav-team

    East- New Jersey Nets

    West- Twolves

    If they ever meet in the finals the team Iam rooting for is- Nets(hands down)

    All-time Fav Player

    1A) Micheal Jordan- who else would a 21 year old cat, from New York love except MJ. I grew up watching him give the Knicks the business year in year out. He is as much apart of knick/Madison square garden history as Pat Ewing or any other great knick. When we look back on basketball history the 2 players that never wore a knick uniform but will always be associated with the Knicks is MJ & Reggie.

    1B) Sam Iam Cassell- I watched him a little at FSU, then when he killed the knicks as a rookie in the Finals. He has been my boy ever since. I love the time he spent with the Nets in '97-'99. It hurt when he got traded for Marbury.

    Current Fav Players

    1) Sam Cassell - by far
    2) Kenyon Martin- My man is a beast. if him and Sam Iam both make it to the all-star game. This might have to be my personal favorite all-star game of all time.
    3) RJ- He is the future of the Nets.
    4)Jason kidd- he changed the Nets franchise for good.
    5) KG- Best Player in the NBA
    6) Jalen Rose- I was a really big fan of Jalen during his fab five Mich days. I kind of lost track of him when he got drafted by denver because I rep the East coast & there was no league pass back then. But when he came back east to the Pacers. And started playing the Knicks & Nets 4 times a year I really started feeling Jalen Rose game again. I like the way he played in the '98 playoffs. The pacers would have won the east that year if they didnt have to play MJ. He did his thing leading the pacers to the finals in '00. kind of hard to watch him playing for teams like the bulls/Raptors these last few months.

    Players I hate - none but I do think Steve Nash & Mike bibby(especially) are a tad bit overratted.
