Lee don't sound to happy but he's young so i think he'll get over it once the season starts and he gets the ball 10 times more than he did in Orlando.

Skip seems happy to be home just like i thought.

From the initial articles the last few days, I thought Alston was ticked by the deal, but sounds like he's pretty pumped. Lee I think just didn't expect it. I don't think he's anything against the Nets. I think he figured he was worth more to the Magic. If I had to guess, he's probably more bitter toward Orlando. Hopefully he takes the trade as a slap in the face and puts a big old chip on his shoulder like Devin did last year and come up swinging this season.

Remember how Jefferson was when he was traded to the bucks, he wasnt happy at all but after about a week was ready to go. i think once lee starts to play some ball with this team hell feel much better.

I think once Lee sees how importance he will be in our style of play, he'll be loving life. Especially if we can turn some heads like we did as the start of last year saying around .500 for so long lol.

Lee didn't sound unhappy at all to me.
The quotes in the article weren't even long enough to pull that out of there.
Maybe a slight disappointment, but ho can blame him, he just came from a team that went to the Finals to a team that might be one of the 5 worst in the league.

BTW stevieboy, I take it you're kidshizzle on nj.com?

yeah poor guy (c-lee), i'm going to break into the nets lockerroom, kidnap him, and return him to orlando where he belongs.

the magic had good chemistry. dwight said c-lee was his little brother and battie was his big bro. so you can imagine both of them, coming off a title run that feel short, were anxious to get back. C-Lee wanted vengeance for missing that lay-up.

He'll be solid for you guys. SVG was volatile with his minutes and he never complained. he's a good player and good character, don't worry. of course he's got to be bummed out now. he'll be a warrior when the season starts.

The beauty of being a rebuilding team is...who gives a damn how he feels right now. He's ours...live with it sucka.

Long term is what matters....and you know what? In three years wat and see how many of our young prospects are playing elsewhere. Thee guys are always bounced around.
