he can be a more athletic najera-type player is he gets his head on right and works hard...if teams really aren't interested in him i wouldn't mind him on the nets' bench for the minimum...

SWat should come ready to play even in the minor leagues...the team he is joining features 4 veteran NBDL all-stars in eddie gill, billy thomas, kaniel dickens and elton brown plus performer of the week josh davis plus 2 nba draft 2nd rounders in sonny weems (taken before CDR) and cheikh...

though yao is definitely heads above yi in talent and potential, yao was the same as yi during his first years in the league...his teammates (specially steve francis) had to teach yao to be more aggressive even with little things like shouting after he dunks on someone...after a while you would...

offense is fine...defense needs work. our young bigs get no respect inside so they are often in foul trouble (the nets lead the league in fouls and DQs). SOLUTION: not much we can do about it. work hard to establish yourself quickly i guess and just keep plugging away. we lack hustle as...

brook, boone, curly, yi, mr. anderson, SWat and a blake griffin-type rookie would be one hell of a young frontline rotation...

boone fits the backup center role perfectly...but krstic is type of player you keep around for his flexibility who can backup both frontline positions and is a borderline starter...someone like a boris diaw...i think $5M/yr is just about right for nenad if a team has the money...

no brooklyn...no lebron...it's that simple...the rat's company stock nosedived 90%...lebron and the nets are farthest from his mind right now... still we have great young players in harris and lopez...a pg and a center...the two hardest to fill positions in the nba a classy veteran in...

i like to have all those 3 bigs in a nets uniform plus boone, krstic and a terrorizing low-post presence (a 20pt on 50%fg/10reb/2 blk guy like al jefferson who operates primarily on the low block)...stro and SWat are out...

Yi has a pretty looking shot, and fast feet and length to get his shot off and grab rebounds with less effort than most players...he probably needs more strength but he already has a lot going for him...a lot of what's lacking is mental...aggressiveness and confidence. Confidence is harder is...

We can all give Kidd a standing ovation for all the memories of those successful playoff years because he deserves it but Harris is gonna burn him and the Mavs for 50 today because they deserve it as well... :)

Great 2003 article: http://www.nj.com/nets/index.ssf/2008/12/nj_nets_flashback_to_03.html Tonight, let's all give Kidd the standing ovation he deserves! :clap:

but he said it after losing by 20 to a team worse than the wolves and the worst team in the east...

man...is gary payton dumb...

if we have had granger we would have traded rj, krstic and whoever else for someone like al jefferson...

if the nets picked danny granger instead of antoine wright the trio of harris/carter/granger could score 100 pts a game...

it is possible if the devin harris foul magnet of late is in 2006 when the refs were still very confused about the "no impeding" rule and takes 50 shots a game...dwyane wade won a ring all by himself that year as well after being down 0-2 and suddenly 5 wing players averaged 30 or more...still a...

hmmm...the nets might have given away a fortune and their future to acquire these two guys scoring 75 points for us...NOT!

what's up all of this winning? we're supposed to be rebuilding! :ghoti:
