    Okay yes we do have a very average roster, keeping in mind we have LFrank and a Hubie Brown type who could use a lot of these one dimential players to full effect.

    So in terms of bigs we have a bit of a logjam....

    Mags wont play
    Swift will play garbage minutes
    KVH is our Malik replacement. So will somehow log minutes. Frank loves those soft jumpshooters.
    Diop? Your guess is as good as mine.
    Boone, Swat and Curly are the only dudes guarenteed minutes.

    With that commitee of players who have experience and varied skill levels you'd think we'd be able to get some worthwhile production out of these guys. Surely. If used depending on matchups and situations, you have a few pretty handy guys.

    at PG we have Devin, Marcus and DA. Marcus will continue to do barely anything. If he isnt traded to a more sympathetic coach, he'll be in europe by 2010. Fact

    At swingman we have another bench commitee.

    Other than Rj and VC (Ricky Davis?) what do we actually have?
    Mo Ager (if he can crack the rotation might end up a steal)
    Hassel (Is he past it? He was so handy in that Sam and Spree TWolves team but he's lost a step... or 5)
    Boki (if he cant get his Jumpshot to fall, he might not be renewed.)
    Plus look for periodic MWill sightings. Or not.

    Its not that bad a team... Its not very good either though.


    Do we have a chance of hitting the playoffs? Should we if so, or just tank it out?

    Another question... if the Ricky and White Chocolate trade goes down... Do we try lowball Davis and see if we can get him for a bargain? He is good production and for the right price is a pretty solid player...

    All depends on these two days.

    Either North or South...

    Go flip a coin, if it lands on the middle, the Nets are going to the playoffs.

    I don't know; I suspect that those 305 words have never been used in that order before.

    Larry's a good coach, obviously as you know is a strong believer in "defence wins championships" (04 Pistons)

    He rebuilds well. Might even be able to see what Marcus can do under his wing.

    Skiles is also an option. He has a 2 season honeymoon period that is solid. The third season his screaming act always begins to wear thin...

    you cant really tank in the east, you can probably be 10 games under .500 and make it in by default

    My point exactly. Are we in a jam or what?
