    Courtesy of NetsDaily: <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>It’s doubtful that Alonzo Mourning or anyone in the Nets organization look back fondly on the center’s days in New Jersey, the way he left or what he’s had to say about the team since. But a day after Mourning suffered what could be a career-ending injury, Rod Thorn and Mourning’s former teammates had no ill words for the man.</div>

    Eh. Not that the respect is really deserved.

    Outside of basketball I hear he's a pretty good guy. Gives a lot to charity, and what not.

    I'm still pissed at the whole controversy between him and the Nets, but maybe it's time to move on. No point in holding a grudge forever.

    man, if we had him healthy, we so would have made the Finals and won it all.

    Kidd/KK/RJ/KMart/Mourning

    that would have been an all defensive team right there.
