    With the addition of Zo and the fact that Deke can still play, what do you think the Nets lineup will be? I think they'll probably keep it close to what they had last season. If Zo can still play like he did, it'll probably look like this:
    PG- Kidd
    SG- Kittles
    SF- RJeff
    PF- Martin
    C- Zo

    there's also the possibility of
    PG- Kidd
    SG- RJeff
    SF- Martin
    PF- Zo
    C- Deke
    they'd lose some athletisicm though

    i would go with the top one. that is a pretty formidable lineup in the weak east, with deke and lucious harris coming off the bench.

    deke and zo need to prove that they can still play everyday. if they can they should both start. the nets should consider using Kmart off the bench so he doesnt have to take too many shots away from better shooters like kittles and more powerful post pressences like zo

    I don't think it would be smart to bench KMart at this point when contract talks are coming in. He and his agent will think that it's the Nets way to lessen his impact on the team or to lessen his stats just to give the team more leverage in negotiations. It would cause a lot of chemistry issues with the team because KMart might go to the press. The last time someone went to the press when talking about an issue of staying with the team or not they went in a bit of a downward spiral for a while (Kidd during the all-star break this past season hinted at going to San Antonio and the Nets played very poorly after that).

    first line up it is im sure...k mart off the bench? as if! his nubers have been getting steadily better every year...why suddenly slow down his development? hes sure to have a great year

    i think the nets should trade deke...they could get a decent player for him for sure...a-train does a great job off the bench, and they got twin too...why keep an aging injury bug around whos past his prime who they BARELY give minutes too in the first place...trade him!

    the first linep will have to be it... there is no way id start deke and zo in the same lineup especially being an eastern confrece team though it would give them a height advantage deke cant really play at that level anymore!

    I like the bottom one. My friend and I were talking about that and said 3 down low and 2 up top would be great. Kittles is old and really stunk up the Nets chances in the finals. Id say having Martin,Deke, and Zo out would really increase the Nets scoring and possibly more wins!
