Do any off the teams behind the Nets deserve to be there either? No

Whose fault is it that the Nets arent in the West and the Blazers and Rockets are?

You know normally I like to crack a joke here and there but this is just one of those times where I can't; learn to write in proper english before you try and start a NBA related blog.

We don't deserve to be there and I don't want them to make the play-offs. we need a top pick. when was the last time we had a lottery pick? RJ.

We need one. Especially if we do actually trade kidd. We need a rose or beasley on this team.

I would trade both carter and kidd for high picks now and future and get younger. we already have a solid young base with marcus, sean, boone, rj, nenad and now swift.

Here we go again.

What solid young base?

Our young guys look very good, like great role guys/semi-stars on a championship team, but we do not have a Dwight Howard, Bosh, Gasol, Josh Smith, Chris PAul, Deron Williams, Al Jeff, Melo, Lebron, Durant, Roy, Wade, Aldridge, Bynum, Biedrens, or even Kevin Martin or Andre Iguodla on our squad.

Our 4 best prospects are SWAT, Boone, Curly and M. Will.

I know it is just assumtion to say stuff like this, but Boone's ceiling looks like a Drew Gooden type. M . Will looks like a Chauncy Billups or Bibby type, which is great by the way, and SWAT looks like a CAmby, which is also great by the way. Curly looks like, if, if he comes back to form is a Big Z type of player which is very good, but not a top tier center either.

But, unless you get a guy like a Wade, Bron, D. Howard, Al Jeff, etc., etc., etc, through gold in the draft or a trade, this team will be one of those mediocre 5-8 seeds in the East till god knows when, even when our prospects hit full potential and perrenially get knocked out of the playoffs 1st to 2nd round, improving nothing but payroll for Ratner, which will not translate to cheaper ticket prices my friend.

There it is in a nutshell.

Blowing it up and building around RJ and our prospects will not win us anything special.

I say you keep 2 of our key prospects and make that risky trade to go for it in the next 2-5 years.

Even if it means numerous deals at the deadline and in the offseason, completely reworking the team, including trading Kidd and RJ or VC, along with one, 2 or 3 of either Boone, M. Will and Krstic and a 1st rounder.

Just keep SWAT, and build me a legit contender, or keep most of what we have and try a shot in the dark trading RJ for Odom or Randolph or JO and keeping Kidd.

God Damn't.
