That would be an excellent backup plan. JYD is the type of guy would fit well playing on any team. He would be an instant crowd favorite and is very active and aggressive. Basically, he would be like a better version of Brian Scalabrine for the Nets. As a Knick fan, it would hurt to see one of my favorite Knicks in another jersey.
Williams might be a good option to replace Scalabine. I think that he would be a good pick up for the Nets in terms of some depth and size. He is past his prime, but looking at his stats he can rebound very well. He also seems to be capable of playing defence as well. Things did not work out for him in New York that much, but he might be a worth a gamble by the Nets.
I think Jerome would be an excellent addition to the team. He brings hustle, defense, and agressiveness, which is pretty much what we need. I would really like to have him in the rotation. Hopefully, he'll agree to our last part of the MLE(1.5 million) or the veteran exception(around 1 million, i think). He's not getting younger, though, so maybe we should got for a 1 or 2 year contract.
This is really good. We'll be able to get JYD for a minimum contract so it won't have to come from our MLE (I think). He's the perfect player for our needs. He'll bring a defensive and hustle spark off the bench and brings rebounding as well. If we added JYD, I think our frontcourt would be set, and all we'll need to do is add a cheap shooter with the remainder of our MLE. It would have been good to have SAR, but I actually think that an addition of both Jackson and JYD will actually fir our game strategy better. BTW, I think Croshere is out of the picture anyway because Indiana waived Reggie for amnesty. But I don't know why everyone was so down on getting Croshere, cosidering the number of times last year he burned us with threes at clutch points of the game. Finley also has been waived, but I think adding him would just clog up our guard position and reduce Antoine's PT. Anyone have any insight as to who we might bring in as a shooter if we do in fact take JYD?
just wondering cause this may hurt or help out chances on getting JYD did him and vince get along in toronto?
What about something like Antoine Wright for Nene. With this trade, NJ clears up their clog @ the swingman positions, and they get that bigman they need. Denver gets the SG they need, and also gets rid of Nene, who was unhappy because he did not get much playtime behind K-Mart. The concept of this trade makes sense for both teams.

The concept of this trade makes sense for both teams.</div> We dont really have a clog or logjam on the wing....yes we have bodies their but the only quality is Richard Jefferson, Vince Carter and the potential of Wright, anybody else like Zoran Planinic etc isnt creating a logjam cause the Nets management and coaching staff doesnt have much faith in him. They are trying to add another wing player so he doesnt have to be in the rotation consistently. As far as the trade goes...I would be lying, if I didnt say"I would do that trade in a heart beat"...cause I would. But I doubt Denver is willing to do it...if they trade Nene, it would be in a package to get a proven shooting guard.
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting thedude9990:</div><div class="quote_post">wat bout bring back rodney rogers</div> Actaully I admit, I was thinking about it for a slight second...then his time as a Net started to f;ash before my eyes...the lack of even effort on Defense, the hour it took for him to get past halfcourt on the fastbreak, the on willingness to use his post up skills anymore...so I say pass on RR. If Eogers was even a serious option I would rather look at Lee Nailon, not as much range on the jumper as RR, but overall a better player at this point in boths career.

The Nets need more defense and Rogers just doesn't seem to be the option at this point. I like you said i noticed it does take him forever to get to the other side of the court, so i too think he isn't an option.
