the guy is as good as gone; Ramon Sessions will feed everyone the ball, guaranteed.

My username says it all. I love RJ, and I'm going to miss to see him go. This team will be different, and it will take time to get used to, a long time.

BTW, Is it true that RJ is heartbroken about leaving NJ? Has he had any comment on it?

I really doubt you're going to hear much from him in the near future .

Somewhere down the road he's going to make a statement don't think he's really sure how to handle and is probably dissapointed . Damn we should have never signed him to a contract that big .
Some millions less per year and i doubt moving him would even have been in the discussion.

:cry: :cry: Remember Young RJ's brutal one handed slam over Kobe in the NBA Finals? That was the only highlight worth remembering from that beat down

I must say.

During his time here, RJ was the backbone of this team. We clearly now have a void as far as leaders on this team. Hopefully, Harris can learn and adapt some of RJ's qualities. Unfortunately we couldnt have traded the other guy. Hopefully the NBA gods will run their course and satify atleast my wishes.

RJ you will be missed.

My tribute to RJ, took all of 5 minutes.

There once was a guy named RJ
Some of the fans thought he was gay
No one knew for sure if it was true
But that Luke Walton is one cool dude

Many Net fans wanted him to stay
But they decided not to pay
So Thorn shipped him to the bucks
Possibly leaving the team in a muck

His talent was great and he had heart
His personality was far set apart
Which direction do the Nets head?
Likely putting the next 2 years to bed

2010 is a long way away
Will Lebron come? No one can say.
What do the fans do until then?
Watch VC as he dunks and spins.

If you guys haven't had a chance yet, listen to the audio clip of his press conference with the Bucks. I highly recommend it. Definitely one of, if not the best interview for the Nets. I can tell he was definitely heartbroken in leaving the Nets. Towards the end of the interview, I even caught a few "oops" when he referred to the Nets as "us" and the Bucks as "them".

I wish him the best, and will follow the Bucks a little more closely now thanks to him being there.
