Seems like this team needs a PF/C more than they need a SF, but that's just me.

really wild speculation on my part here, but _if_ an SF is about to be traded (Morrow), wouldn't that leave the team short an SF, especially if James isn't healing quickly?

Horner got waived and Williams got demoted to the Armor. I guess the good will be that Williams will get more playing time there (and hopefully get into better shape). On the other hand it means we'll still be seeing way too much of Petro, Sheldon, and Shawne :cry:

It's about time they send him down.He can't get better sitting on the bench.He really screwed himself coming into camp so out of shape.

Larry Owens is a decent player and I don't know why he hasn't been able to land a permanent spot on an NBA roster. He's not as good of a shooter as James, but he is more athletic, better rebounder, and can jump out of the gym. I like the move.

How hurt is Damion James?

Can't wait for the Nets to decline Damion James' team option. That will be a good day.
