<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Two years ago, the Nets were in the throes of an off-season that could hardly be described as fan-friendly. The team had been forced to sell its first round pick and trade two fan favorites. It looked like a salary dump of massive proportions. Some predicted five years of mediocrity. The reality turned out differently, with 2005-06 being the second most successful regular season in team history. Vince Carter became a Net, as did Marcus Williams, as a result of those 2004 deals.</div> Source
The same can be argued with Josh Boone (and I will argue this if he turns into a great player)...i.e. K-Mart turned into VC and Boone.
