Ron jeremy knows the deal!!!! Its a big difference between someone scumbag sabotaging us because he's an immature 35 year old and a group of guys fighting to win games. He Who Blackens The Eyes of Models can kiss my ***!!!!

I definitey believe we're a more functional unit overall...regardless of Kidd's numbers, we were not as cohesive as a unit...this year you saw a team dealing w. real Kidd trade rumors and a Nets team chemistry in decline...
now we have multiple players getting involved in what was Kidd's role and we're looking more cohesive as a team...
Coach Frank needs to step up and find a rotation...obviously this will happen when Harris returns...but he needs to find units that will work together well...there are numerous lineups we can show...we need to utilize a wide range and find which ones are most effective...

"Thorn said. "But Jason was insistent on going to a good team. I told him, 'I don't care where I send you. I'll send you to a good team or a bad team, whatever deal makes sense for us.' He didn't like that very much."
haha. Rod laying it down.
And his point is exactly mine. What do we as NETS fans care where he went or what he wins? It's all about what we get back. If he wanted to go. fine. But i wouldve had no problem sneding him to Minnesota as long as it was the best deal for us. No championship for kidd? no problem.
Kidd's got an overgrown sense of what he's entitled to. In this business, you play where you play, and if you get lucky, you play on a championship team. The only say you get is from negotiation come contract time or if people do you favors. And noone does favors for a douche.

XD!
Pretty much.
Anyway Stan is hit the nail right on the head the team is better without Kidd and this is without the major piece of the trade(Harris) I think it's mostly because Vince was pressured a bit too much by Kidd and now that Kidd is gone VC is more loose and he actually plays much better.

Excellent post JJ!!!!!
That is my concern a rotation. Frontcourt we are better than in recent years but you would never know it. LFrank can create rotation so that the team can settle down with and everybody just play.
The "Turnpike" deserve a NBA championship!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have no faith that frank will find a rotation, or at least the most effective one. Look how long it's taking him to realize nachbar is not a power forward? He still hasn't. How come Frank always has to have an odd man out that doesn't deserve it? No reason, and so you have Mags going all the way to dallas still asking why?
If I see him call a timeout and walk onto the court clapping again during another team's 16-4 run, im gonna lose it.
