OT: Net Planning the Future already!!

[Danchan]

Shaq's face pasted on?? I know those are his arms. but that's NOT his face.

[Candide]

WoWzErS. what a BRILLIANT marKeting ploy! where can i buy NETS Tickets?!?!?!?!?!?!

i think it'll take more than that ad to get people to even consider paying to watch a 3-30 team.

[Bo0bo0]

It's funny that they have a picture of Shaq!!

[Rembokz]

The ad meant that those guys are coming to play against the Nets in New Jersey.

I think that is what there meaning, I mean Peirce isn't even a F.A

He has the potential to be via player option.

[Crazy-Canuck]

They are all potential free agents. PP has an early termination clause after this year.

I can't help but laugh that the Nets are already posting that image already on their home website.

What are the chances of ANY of those superstar would go to the Nets?


edit: not flaming the Nets, they do have potential but I just stumbled upon that page and found it amusing and interesting.

2nd edit: Hmm... now I think of it, it might just be an ad of showing them coming to PLAY the Nets? But who knows, it's funny how I drew my conclusion on the 2010 free agency instead of the competition itself....

at first i thought you were an idiot.
but you are pretty much bang on.
you can read the ad either way.
its pretty clear which future stars are "coming" to the Nets, according to that ad. you don't see Roy or Nash or Kobe on that poster. they have long-term deals.

Uh, I don't doubt there's implication that one of these players might consider the Nets but I'm pretty sure this just means their respective teams are scheduled to play in New Jersey... It's pretty clever marketing.

Higher than New York, that's for sure.

This is a part of it, as is the Free Agency. Nets are also selling reversible jerseys, with the nets on one side and other NBA superstars on the other. They realize the Nets themselves will attract more "basketball fans" looking to take in a game, than "Nets fans" looking to support the Nets. Especially when it's so out in the open that they are looking to relocate to Brooklyn.

it's funny how you have a reading comprehension problem..

Um, no. Read the thread. Every non-Net is a free agent or potential free agent. It's pretty clear what they're doing. Finding out that Pierce has a PO was the last piece of the puzzle.

The nets also had a promotion last year where if you buy tickets you receive a free reversible jersey.

One side a Nets player, the other side the "Star" from the other team.



They are just trying to make us much as possible of the "Stars" from other teams.
