by John Wilmes

After a dull weekend of Game 1s, a doubleheader between Knicks/Sixers and then Nuggets/Lakers delivered an excess of drama. You never know when a basketball cult might be formed or broken.

Quote

Post #1 » by SteveNets15 » Sat May 16, 2009 2:33 pm

TRADE ID # 5072461

NETS Incoming: Marcus Camby,Al Thornton,Mardy Collins

NETS lineup:
Devin Harris/Dooling/Collins
CDR/Hayes
Al Thornton/Simmons
Camby/Yi/Sean
Brook/Camby

CLIPPERS Incoming: Vince Carter,Ryan Anderson,1st rnd pick this year.

CLIPPERS Lineup:Not sure who there going to re-sign
Baron Davis
Gordon/VC
VC/Novak if re-signed
Zack Randolph/Anderson
Chris Kaman
2 first rnd picks

I think it works out good for both teams.NJ gets a veteran big, a young 3 and a 3rd pg.LAC is not gonna re-sign half there team so they'll have 2 first rnd picks in this years draft,the Nets 1st rnd pick from last year in Anderson and a veteran swing man VC.

lol Is Al Thornton really that bad?I just figured he would be better than anyone the Nets got in the draft at pick #11 and I'm not big on Anderson so that was easy.

Neither Ryan nor the pick have any place in this deal. Truthfully, NJN fans might prefer swinging Al and Marcus elsewhere.

Some people really have a way with words. Other people... not... have... way.

Al Thorton is hot trash.

This deal is hideous for NJ.
