    VC is regressing and has a long contract and is older than RJ, RJ can keep you fastbreak and plays better defense and also works better w/o the ball, VC I said it so many times this guy for all his talent is an underachiever, just the other game he ran the ball from midcourt 2 seconds into a new shot clock and chucked a 3pt if that's not breaking offensive rythmn IDK what is.

    Would we not have too many bigs in the rotation if we make this trade? We would have JON, Krstic, Sean, Boone, Collins, Malik. I don't think this trade would make us any better than we are now. I like Boone and Sean together and they truly are a plethora of potential. I think we should stop looking out and just work with what we have now. If we continue to develop Boone and Sean, we would have the bigs that the Nets have been longing for for so many years.

    Even if VC plays like crap, I'd rather have him on the team than someone who might not not even come onto the court for a while.

    I love Sean trust me A-51 can only learn from J.O. imagine Sean off the bench w/ no foul trouble ?, or if J.O. goes down you still have depth w/ Sean and Boone..you wouldn't like that, people said the same thing about Marcus Camby and look at him now I don't see injuries keeping him down sometimes an offensive scheme causes you to get hurt Indy was a J.O. offense and he got hurt trying to hold the fort but I'd still do this deal.

    even if that someone effects a game like Jermaine O'neal, when it's game time that guy plays hurt, tired and when he's 100 % he's a problem.

    I think you might be giving him too much credit, and honestly, I want someone back that is healthy. Looking at it now, he's too risky.

    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>when he's 100 % he's a problem.</div>

    Who knows how long it'll take him to get back to 100%.

    he's a shotblocker and Jermaine is a vet he can learn alot from a veteran big like Jermaine who use to be where Sean use to be. It's a long season and Sean is going to need to rest so he doesn't wear out, J.O. as a starter would lessen SW minutes, improve his late season conditioning & improve his oncourt I.Q.

    This rumor is being floated around and a majority of media and us fans on these message boards are against trading for JON, I mean dude hasn't been healthy in 2 years he's in and out the Nets can't afford that right now also I'm noticing how the media is now turning it's attention to L.Frank and his coaching. This is just my opinion, you can not have 3 all star Caliber players at the wings and not be better than 18-21, If George Karl did it in Milwaukee with Ray-Ray Sam Cassell and Glenn Robinson than I don't know about Frank as the head coach, I hope that Thorn does not even entertain the though of trading for JON that would be the worst move in his tenure as Nets President

    nothing is going to happen this is all speculation. The Nets will have the same players and keep producing the same results.


    Even if this trade happens it does not turn the Nets into contenders.


    The Nets franchise looks like a mess. The sign VC not because they believe he will help them win a chip or go deep in the playoffs but because they feel he will be profitable when they make their move.

    The Nets are not expected to make a move till 2010. VC popularity among fans and as a recent polled showed among his peers has fallen as well.


    It just doesn't make sense. I keep hearing this team is being kept because their is no profit in moving a losing team to a new city but the Nets are not exactly winners.

    no I never said it. I said RJ is younger yesterday which is the closest I came to calling someone cheaper it was refering to VC for Amare, it's cool no biggy, I'd still trade VC before RJ [​IMG]

    that use to be the case but really w/ D-wade and CB4 and King James to be FAs by that time it would be a smart move all around.

    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (J-HoAgZ @ Jan 20 2008, 11:19 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}></div><div class='quotemain'>I love SWat and J-Biz but we do need more frontcourt production to be an elite team. I have no problem with playing a small line-up and just running the floor non-stop but we aren't really doing that. Either have a solid frontcourt and give them the rock or go with a small line-up. Heres Boston and Detroit's Frontcourt production compared to ours.. (Just starting PF & C).


    Boston - 26.1pts 15.4reb
    Detroit - 22.3pts 15.6reb
    Jersey - 14.5pts 11.9reb</div>
    That's taking in account there numbers before being promoted to starters when Frank was barely playing them...As starters this season they are combining for 20 points and 15.7 rebounds

    Those numbers look pretty similar to me

We would have JON, Krstic, Sean, Boone, Collins, Malik. I don't think this trade would make us any better than we are now. I like Boone and Sean together and they truly are a plethora of potential. I think we should stop looking out and just work with what we have now. If we continue to develop Boone and Sean, we would have the bigs that the Nets have been longing for for so many years.</div>

    Welcome to the site! If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask.

    Are you by any chance a Rutgers fan? Just noticed the "RU" in your user name. We could definitely use more college fans here.
