I personally don't like K-Mart. Back in the day at a Nets game, I asked him for an autograph, and he said no and proceeded to be a complete **** about it.

But back to the topic though, it would be good for the Nets to bring him back on a 1 year deal. Hopefully he can stay healthy.

He can be our enforcer again.

Unless we're signing K-Mart from 2003, I don't think so. He hasn't been a high-flyer for years.

Yeah, he couldn't and he wouldn't be a high-flyer for us. Just a good defender and a crowd pleaser.

Really?

I met Kenyon before a game on 2 occasions and he was one of the coolest NBA guys I've met.

Brief maybe a little over 5 minute convo each time, but really cool and signed autographs for us without even asking the one time.

The one time we were in a small group before a playoff game at the players entrance and he stopped, there were some dudes with their little kids, but we talked about ball with us and signed autographs for the kids and when he was about to bounce he asked if we wanted an autograph too.

you guys might be overstating it a bit, kenyon still throws down some nice, momentum shifting put backs... he's not 25 anymore clearly, but he gets up pretty quickly and hes stronger and quicker to the ball than most 4s

i'm all for bringing him in. tough to overstate the effect of kenyon's personality on a team... he puts everyone on edge, you cant watch that guy battle every night and not feel like a complete prick for giving anything but all-out effort.
