    false. you should know that's not true just from the limited minutes he has played so far with the nets.

    Yeah, of course, it isn't like he hasn't been in the NBA since the 2000-2001 season. His pump fake, pump fake, pump fake and then travel shot is easily his best.

    is he insanely skilled? no. does he have some post moves, a 15 foot jumper, and good enough ball handling skills to drive to the basket? yes.

    don't you think you're being just a bit unfair in your judgement of his skills?

    Stro will have to play first, then we could talk about him starting over Nenad.

    Swift plays well when he starts, it really seems to keep him in rhythm. I'd like him to get significant minutes soon to see if he can help this team and that his coach believes in him.

    I really hope he plays tonight...

    stro can definitely create his own shot better than SWat, boone and diop because of that 15-footer he has...he just hasn't improved at all since he came into the league...SWat and boone are better playing off the ball and diop uses his superior positioning inside to get some easy shots...

    Knowing how much to spend on Krstic and Diop is more important than either.

    Dave D basically said the same thing today, and I agree 100%.

    The guys they really need to evaluate are Krstic, Diop, Marcus and Sean, and to a certain extent Boki. They should try and make the playoffs too, but the schedule isn't looking too favorable. So once it's obvious we ain't doin' that, we gotta take a look at our unknown commodities and make them a bit more... known.

    Although I'd resign Diop either way. Apparently he's a good interview too, which is exciting.
