Who We Dont Want 

Post#1 » by NJ To BK » Sat Mar 13, 2010 5:25 pm

I think its safe to say that whether it be draft pick, coaches, or FA's we have all voiced our opinion on who we want. But every night when I put on league pass I pray to god the nets dont settle on singing some people. We have suffered to much with the loss of K-Mart, Kidd, Rj, And Vince. We deserve a quality product.

My FA is Al Harrington.- I hate him. He will never win. He's just to selfish.
He seems like someone to worry about because one he is from NJ. And he already probably lives close by so it seems like a pretty good opportunity for him.

My draft pick is John Wall- you guys are probably going to rip me for saying this but I think he is overrated. I think he is just an athlete, I worry about his jumpshot, and how he will match up against NBA point guards. We already have Devin Harris who we invested in with Jason Kidd, and he already proved that he is an all-star when he has a good surrounding cast. Plus there is a man of Evan Turner on the board, who I honestly think it the complete package player.

My coach is Mike Dunleavy. - now honestly I dont know what shot he has at coming to New Jersey. Personally I dont care, I just dont ever want to see him on our sidelines.

Any additions?

FA - Amare. He's not the player he used to be and those knees are also dodgy, he'll also demand a lot of money, especially if we want him to come to NJ. I just don't think that investment would be worth it

Draft - anybody besides Wall/Turner

Coach - Opie, Dunleavy, Triano, or any other scrub coach who would ruin our youth movement.

Yeah, I kind of have to agree on Amar'e. I DO believe giving him a max contract is better than walking away empty-handed in FA, but I'd rather give David Lee 9-10mil/year than STAT 16-18mil/year. I hope we don't get into a bidding war for Gay or Johnson either, if we whiff on the top-tier guys.

It's going to be extremely hard for this franchise NOT to come out of the draft significantly improved. Whether you love or hate the top four prospects (Wall, Turner, Johnson and Cousins), any of them would be an immediate boost to our starting lineup with All-Star potential.

I REALLY don't want either Marc Jackson or Jeff Van Gundy as our next coach. Messina? YES! K? Good haul. Cal? Alright. Thibodeau? I can dig it. Avery? Hmm... But please, neither of tweedle dee or tweedle dum needs to coach in the NBA, ESPECIALLY not for the Nets. Oh, and it goes without saying that Kiki doesn't need to be our coach.

Coach - Patrick Ewing/Calapari/Pitino

FA - JJ (MAX) Amare (MAX) both will compand it. Give me Gay and or Lee at 10-12

Draft - Cousins/Wesley Johnson. I would settle for Wall/Turner/Favors (who has been beasting as of late)

Return to Brooklyn Nets
