Yeah I'm gonna miss Boki. Even if we didn't sign him, I wanted to see him stay in the NBA so I could at least root for him and whatnot. The only good thing with him going to Europe is they specifically structured his contract out there with small buyouts after each year on his contract just in case he ever wanted to return.

I'll miss him but it was clear he wasn't gonna be apart of our team anymore.

I'm glad he has a contract that enables him to come over to the NBA when ever he feels like it. Good luck Boki, wish you the best.

we knew he was gone...it was fun while it lasted...though I'll admit I thought he would of ended up being more significant to the Nets...

--good luck to Boki...

I'll miss him also. He had a crazy 06-07 season. He was also our second coming of Veal for a good minute until he started to show he was pretty good. Not only do we lose Bostjan Nachbar, but we also lost the Bostjan Market.

At least we can have fun trying to come up with another player to follow in Boki's and veals footsteps. I nominate Stromile swift.

You know Stromile handles his swifty business everytime he comes in the game.

If Swift will be on next years roster ( which i doubt ) the only thing we'll be watching him is sitting on the sideline in a nice suit.

Nachbar is going to make more this year than Carter did last year. WOW. I'm happy for him.

Who is gonna be the guy we love yet still poke fun at now? Ryan Anderson? It's either him or Boone IMO.

I'm pulling for Ryan Anderson, I said it after the draft...he's kind of taken that sort of soft spot Boki filled for me as a fan...and I'm hoping he's more of a pure shooter too...though we gotta find a nickname...

Everytime I see him I want to call him "Ry Ry" which is a shout out to Glassjaw if any of you know who that is.
